Thanks for the info, Can't wait to get my copy of this months Your Family History as it's called here in Canada. What ticks me off is even though I subscribe and love this magazine, I always receive it about 1 week after it comes out in the shops in the UK. Probably something to do with that it is posted from Sweden. Does anyone else receive their subscription posted from Sweden? Also the card index with the Surname interests for that month used to be on light weight card, but not any more, now they are printed on the same paper as the rest of the magazine. Is this the norm now or just applies to overseas subscribers. I would love to know what others have as I may just e-mail the magazine to complain. My index card box which they sent to me is not much use now. Flimsy bits of paper just wont sit nicely. Amanda P. in Ontario

Yes arrived this morning. Issue for Christmas 2004. Been having a play with the Family Tree Maker, never used this one. It's only a starter edition but if you want to upgrade you get a £10 discount. Also a feature how to use the IGI and about researching the meaning and origin of your surname. Diane

I guess this is the joy of magazine subscription... getting them a few days early...
