It might have been thought that I had a good start to my education, the only problem was I started school at six, all the other children had over a year in school more than I had.
It takes a child starting a new school six months to settle in, as soon as I had settled in after six months, I was on the move again, the next infant school lasted three months and my third infant school five months.

If the weather is bad and you can't make it to school - there is not any refund.
Two feet of snow on most roads meant few made it to school at the start of January 1963.

This is the first blossom I'll get more shots tomorrow, we are going in an outing, hunting waterfalls and blossoming tree,
this shot was taken with the Nikon 70-300 from a far distance, the sky was cloudy that's why it is a little dull, I liked that crop hope you'll like it.
A screech owl chick takes his first view from the nest hole. Not quite ready for the big, wide world, but I'm looking forward to seeing the chicks fledge in the next week or so.

It's my goal to make it to the first cinder cone on the next trip. Poor judgement on my part robbed my granddaughter of this experience.

Another shot from Wishaw from yesterday evening, this time showing the point when the sun went behind Beetham Tower (Holloway Cicus Tower) in Birmingham, UK.

We had the first snow of 2009 overnight. It was only a few inches but it made small roads almost impassable.
Holywell-cum-Needingworth, Cambridgeshire
This bleak grave on the edge of the Holywell churchyard is the last resting place of Thomas Moody Mortlock and Eliza Mortlock, my great-great-grandparents. Their daughter, my great-grandmother Eliza, was the mother of Edmund Stanley Cornwell, my maternal grandfather. She was born at Needingworth on the outskirts of St Ives in Huntingdonshire in 1865. Holywell-cum-Needingworth parish contains two main settlements, the larger village of Needingworth and the smaller village of Holywell, where the parish church is. Beside the churchyard runs the River Ouse, which until 1974 formed the border with Cambridgeshire.
Today, Needingworth is in Cambridgeshire, and the parish on the opposite bank is Swavesey, where Thomas Moody Mortlock was born in 1842. Thomas was from a fairly well-to-do family; his father John was variously a farmer, baker and flour merchant, and kept the Swavesey windmill.
Thomas Moody Mortlock was the sixth of seven children, and on 16th January 1861 he married Eliza Mansfield at Needingworth parish church. It cannot have been seen as a good match by Thomas's parents. Thomas was just 18 years old, three years younger than his bride. Eliza Mansfield had spent much of her childhood in the St Ives Union Workhouse, and, furthermore, she was six months pregnant at the time of the marriage. The census of April that year finds the couple living with Thomas's parents, and their first child Samuel was already a month old, born two months after their marriage.
By the time my great-grandmother was born in 1865, Thomas, Eliza and their other children were living in High Street, Needingworth, and they would live there for the rest of their lives. An interesting incident is recorded in the Holywell-cum-Needingworth parish records. On the 1st June 1873, Thomas and Eliza took the eight children that had been born to them so far to church and had them baptised, probably with water from the holy well in the churchyard which gives the hamlet its name. The occasion was the baptism of their new infant son, John. Perhaps the parish had a new Rector who was filled with enthusiasm, or perhaps Thomas and Eliza underwent a conversion of some kind - Thomas himself had been baptised three months earlier.
Thomas and Eliza would have fourteen children, eleven of whom would still be alive in 1911. Thomas became a bricklayer, declaring himself as self-employed on the 1911 census, when he was 69. He died seven years later. His wife Eliza, my great-grandmother's mother, lived for almost another twenty years, dying in Needingworth in the first quarter of 1938 when she was a few weeks short of her 99th birthday. Their gravestone in Needingworth churchyard reads In loving memory of THOMAS MOODY MORTLOCK who entered into rest March 3rd 1919 in his 78th year. "Today Thou shalt be with me in Paradise". Also of ELIZA MORTLOCK wife of the above who entered into rest March 23rd 1938 aged 98. Until the day break and the shadows flee away. Six of their children also have memorials in the churchyard, two of them next to Thomas and Eliza's headstone.
