Thanks Dennis, and now following you too. I hope I live up to your expectations and look forward to getting to know you too.

My one piece of advice would be to take things at your own pace and don't rush to get through things also don't miss any of the trainings or you will just get confused somewhere along the line.

Just give me a shout if you need any help at all.

Good luck and best wishes to you on your journey here at WA. xxx

Hi Tammi, you are very welcome and thanks for following me back.

I joined WA in April 2016 and love this great community of people here. There is always someone who can help with something or other if you have problems.

I will put a picture of my wee ball of fluff Jake at the bottom for you.

Thank you, I will do and likewise if I can help you just ask.

We most certainly will speak again soon. xxx

Thanks Cheryl, I'll be looking for the picture!!!!

Sorry Tammi, when I saw your name I realised I had forgot to put it on lol. Will put it on this one.

Oh my goodness!!!!!! He is sooo precious!!!! And I will bet that he isn't spoiled at all!!!!! I wish we could have a play date!!!

Thanks for the picture...I love him......

T

Thank you Tammi, he s a wee darling and we all love him. He is well spoiled and he loves to play.

You are very welcome. xxx

Hi Linda, thank you and it has taken me a while and it was never my plan to go that far in rank. I had got to 29 before and then it went away back to 52 so have managed to get it back. I do love what I am doing although there are some days when I think that I don't know what to write about.

That would be nice Linda for you to be able to get to places you would love to visit. I would love to be able to go back to New York and I would also love to be able to go back to Australia as I was just 13 when I went before and I now have family in Brisbane and Sydney and a friend from Adelaide.

Good luck and best wishes in your journey here at WA. xx

Thank you Brad, do you have Scottish connections though.

No Tootsie is very much a female but I sometimes wonder if her and Jake are doing role reversals lol.

You are welcome and it's a pleasure to meet you too. Best wishes and great success also in all aspects of life. xx

I was born in Australia and don't know much about my father's side which is Scottish.
My father's father left him when he was 18 months old.
Don't care to find out what or who he is. I know what he is! Lol
Best wishes also

I have my brother and his family living in Brisbane, my cousin and her family in Sydney and an uncle in Bondi, Sydney and there are quite a few people here in WA scattered about Australia.

I don't blame you for not wanting to know who or where he is if he did that. xx

Hi Taetske, good afternoon to you too. Both Tootsie and Jake are doing well and love running about together. When I take Jake out for a walk, Tootsie loves to come with us and follows us at the back. At the back of our house there is a big patch of grass and they play chase there, it's funny to watch but all the neighbours think that Jake is chasing some random cat, they don't realise that she is our cat and they are best friends. Sounds like your hands are full as well. Cats are so independent so we are honoured if Tootsie decides to come and sit on our laps.She really took a shine to one of my boys and will sit in his arms and give him cuddles.

Jake on the other hand loves to cuddle into you when you are sat on the couch and he follows everywhere when ever you move but he is so cute. There is a really good image of them both in my google+ plus account.

Hope you are having fun in your journey here at WA and everything is working out ok for you. xx

You're welcome Jessica and I know how hard it is to keep up. I will certainly give your site a look and I loved that part too.

Thanks for following me back. Xx

You're welcome Carol, I have never been to Crieff but if I ever do will certainly go and visit the Tearoom as it sounds lovely. My brother and his family live in Brisbane, they emigrated from Glasgow to Brisbane in 2006.

Look forward to getting to know you better and best wishes for your journey here at WA. xx

Hello again, Cheryl. My mother's side of the family came from Glasgow and the cotton and linen mills, and my father's side came from Peebles and Edinburgh.
Please visit the Tearoom if you go to Crieff, they converted an old church with a lot of work and it is worth a coffee to see it! Tell them I sent you haha!

I certainly will Carol. We are only about 30 mins away from Peebles and 45 mins away from Edinburgh. xx

You are very welcome John and there is nothing to keep us from not being connected. I am always surprised how many people I find that are either from Scotland or have Scottish genes here at WA. xx

You're welcome Pat and thanks for the follow back. He is adorable and daft at the same time. It is so funny to see him and our cat Tootsie playing together, they run all over the house chasing each other like playing tig.

Best wishes to you on your journey here at WA. xx

Here's a picture to let you see what Jake looks like.

Soooo cute!

Thanks Pat. Xx

You're welcome Michael and thanks for following me back. Best wishes back to you as well. Xx

Hi, I am wondering if you should take it out all together and start again from the beginning and see if that helps. It will probably mean you having to apply again. Xx

Thanks Cheryl I did actually do that they just don't offer much for help I will do it again and see what happens

Let me know how you get on, xx

I will for sure. Thank you again.

Good luck. xx

You're very welcome Marcel and thanks for following me back.

I have been here for almost a year now and think the training is second to none.

I love and totally agree with your quote at the end here.

Thanks again.

Cheryl

Thank you Robert and I certainly have realized that. I am enjoying doing the bootcamp training although I am a bit stuck at the moment but will overcome it and move on as always. Do you still live in Scotland? xx

I have lived in Scotland all my life and never moved out off it although in my younger days I did work all over the place.
Mainly up north on the big Estates for the Aristocracy.
Now I'm in Auld Reekie and intend to stay here.
Enjoy your evening.
Robert

That's good to know. I have been the same Robert and never will leave. I stay in Penicuik now but I originally come from a small mining village about 10 miles from Edinburgh which is called Rosewell. I really don't expect you to have heard of it though lol. xx

I know Rosewell very well Cheryl and in fact my grandparents and parents and an uncle and cousins have all lived there.
As far as I know there is still one cousin living there today.
Robert

OMG, I never for a minute thought you would know where it was never mind having family from the village. What are their names as my dad was born and brought up in Rosewell and he still lives there now? He will probably know them. xx

My grandparents are dead now as is my father.
They all worked on the farms
One of them was Goorlaw and the other Gortonlee (think I've spelled them right lol)
My mother worked in Rosslynlee. That was when there was still a train station over the back of Rosewell.
My Grandparents were Cockburns and my uncle was their son.
My parents were called Aitchison and one of my uncles lived down the road in Bonnyrigg.
My cousin is a Cockburn

I do know of the Cockburns, what is your cousins first name? Not sure about your parents but my dad would maybe have known them though. What were their first names so I can ask him and I will let you know. My dad's name is Peter McGauley. xx

Margaret Cockburn
My father was called John but always Jock and his father was auld Sandy but sometimes called auld Baker coz he used to be one.
Now I best be off for the night as there's a hot bath with my name on it.
Robert

Thank you Mike, there are a few others here too that have Scottish connections. I love New York, we were there in 2012 for Thanksgiving as I wanted to see the Macy's thanksgiving day parade. We also went to the Metlife twice to see the Jets first and then the Giants. I did a blog at Thanksgiving on our trip to New York.

Thanks for the follow and same to yourself. Xx

Thank you Wayne. Xx

Hi and yes I am Scottish through and through.I stay 10 miles outside Edinburgh. The Highlands are lovely, especially the scenery but agree the only downside is the weather as we are never guaranteed to get what they forecast and can have the four seasons in one day. The Highlands would be a nightmare for the midges lol. Where do you stay now? xx

I spend time between UK and France . I live in the UK. My family are in France . One of my sons has a Gite and my husband and I are helping him to get it established.It`s in a beautiful area.

Where about in the UK are you, I've always fancied going to the South of France but have never fancied Paris. xx

South west
and it`s not the south of France. ( too busy) stick a pin in the center.!

Ok lol. Xx

Hi Neil,

Thanks for the follow and you are very welcome. Sorry for the late reply and glad you liked my blogs.

Will certainly have a conversation with you at some time about the grammar blog soon.

Cheryl xx

Hi Marcel,

I was already a premium member but had a problem with my payment and had to resubscribe so this is me back again. Thank you though. xx

Thanks. Xx

Thanks Ali for the follow and I will follow you back on all your links. xx

Thanks very much Helen. xx

I think I was asleep when I typed the above. Try getting your son to look at an optional occupation was what I meant!!

It's fine lol. I knew what you meant. xx

Have you tried using the alphabet method when looking for keywords. Xx

Thank you Steph, nice to meet you too. xx

Have a great day Cheryl. By the way, do you like WA so far?

I do Steph, this is a great community of great people who are all so friendly and very helpful if you need answers to questions. xx

It is a great community alright! :)

Thanks Desmond.

Thanks Reyhana, it is so funny to have both the dog and cat playing together and yes they definitely do give you attitude. Enjoy your time with them and great to hear you love Danielle Steel too. She is such a good author, love the style of her books but just wish she didn't have as many out at the one time lol, can't keep up.

I also have a hard time keeping up! I don't know how she does it. I have started writing a book of my own and have been at it for almost a year and still not completed it! LOL... But I guess practice makes perfect. She's been writing for years and years.

I don't know either, how does she keep coming up with different stories at the same time, I'd be totally confused. Good luck with your book though.

Thank you very much!

You're very welcome.
