Hi David You will be in good company then! Welcome to the boards, most people have hit the sack that can help your headaches except the people from different time zones and they are most helpful as well. Hope you enjoy your time on the boards, if you want a laugh or a joke general board is worth checking regularly Want advice or help check tips board. For all the serious look ups the records board is the best. Well my turn to hit the sack, Good night Pat x

Welcome, David. This hobby is totally addictive, sometimes confusing, and can be very, very enjoyable and rewarding! :-) We started 5 years ago by reading books such as the Family Tree Detective by Colin Rogers, and a book by George Pelling - borrowed them from the library, and had to buy them! Very useful reference books. Then we got on the internet later ... and I have fun on this board! Bendy - how come you paid £35!!! ouch :-) Joy
