Hello from NZ, A few months ago I found the Appleby Magna website where some of my SPENCER family were and came across this so thought I would send it to you. It is an excellent site, the best I've seen yet. John WEBB, son of Thomas Webb EDGE and Elizabeth of Strelley, Co Nottingham bapt. Nov 24 1790 at St Michael & All Angels (Church Register, 1572 - 1906). I lived in Strelley till we married and moved to Linby. And on a tangent, just to let Bob and Janet in Gisborne, and anyone else here in NZ, know that we are going to watch the Nottm Forest v Watford match LIVE on Freeview TV Channel 14 tomorrow morning from 8.40 a.m. It's a wonderful Sports channel and we have watched Forest live a few times this season. Regards Ann Bassford

Nottingham' structure when transcribing records. Shows they have little knowledge of how things work in England & Wales. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg

Whilst Forest are one of my favourite teams / clubs (watched them many times) for my sins I have supported Man. City for the last 51 years and was present last Saturday when Watford played at City and had "the cheek" nay guile and efffort to be winning 0-2 until the second half. Beware their average League position, they now have some Italian players on loan - I think about 15 yes 15 and some of the players can do just that (play). They are fast "up front" but some "at the back" are slow. Enjoy the game - Regards Jack Richards www.richardsbygonetimes.co.uk
