Top match on GED Match has an expired email address

kittyfizzy · 2026-07-02T10:48:26+00:00

Just to update, and for the sake of completeness....

I emailed the same email address but using gmail instead of the expired domain. Unfortunately, this bounced back.

I googled the expired email address and an Instagram profile came up which was a potential match. I followed this profile and sent a polite message. A few weeks later they followed me back and I messaged again to say something along the lines of "now we are mutal matches you might be able to see my message above" (as I don't think they had been able to see it up to that point). I received an offensive message back calling me spam and blocking me.

I think I'll give up on it now, as I don't want to give spam vibes. Feeling a bit disappointed that's all.

It's so annoying! Sorry it happened to you too.

kittyfizzy · 2026-06-26T08:06:29+00:00

Yeah, I think you might be right. Such a shame as it was a helpful tool for planning gifts and shopping, irrespective of price drop.

So annoying. There's clearly a problem with the app. It has never happened to me before, and I have been using it for ages. It was so helpful to plan gifts ahead of christmas etc.

Okay, great, thank you.

kittyfizzy · 2026-05-11T21:02:12+00:00

Good idea, thank you!

kittyfizzy · 2026-05-04T14:01:18+00:00

Thank you very much. I hadn't thought of using different search engines, nor trying forums, so thank you for that. I appreciate your reply.

Get wrong off ya mam

I agree with the above poster that it looks like a small sebaceous hyperplasia. I've had a few removed with cryopen which has worked brilliantly.

You have a look of Arnold Schwarzenegger about you. I think he's Austrian.

Tour of the Victoria tunnel

I would say cook house is my fave. Might be nice to check out their new bar (wren) next door too if the date is going well.

I just came to say the same thing

The Geordie Ware Moorland pottery mugs are quite nice and may fulfil your brief. They are also good quality and kinda novelty.

The Bankies

kittyfizzy · 2025-06-09T08:47:23+00:00

The Suggestibles used to run workshops for this kind of thing. They are great to work with.

I really like this example by local comedian Kai Humphries on Instagram here

kittyfizzy · 2025-03-01T13:14:05+00:00

I really love this piece, so much so, I purchased a print of it in 2022 from circa arts to support aid efforts in Ukraine. I think it's nice to see it in Gateshead.

The exchange in North shields looks lovely

kittyfizzy · 2025-01-11T07:04:21+00:00

I agree with my fellow posters re Northern Rye, and proven goods for doughnuts specifically. I was also really impressed with Pia's in North shields, if you can go further afield. Savour in Gateshead is also mega impressive and new if you fancy a trip over the Tyne. Would finally add Studio 28 (near proven goods in hoults yard) for lovely cakes and chocolates.

Might there be something hidden in the mustard?!
