Hello She and everyone Iam a very new member and only just started on my tree! I am really interested about the Manchester day and what you do? Do you think it would be any use to me?

I put a holiday request in at work yesterday so at present, I'm just waiting for it to be approved. Will hopefully have an answer on that one by 23rd/24th March.

Hi She Wray I would really love to come but acedemically I am up to my neck with my dissertation, and I do not thnk it will be possible to attend. I am really frustrated because it would lovely to meet everybody, please keep me posted of other meetings. I am so annoyed about not being able to come you wouldn't believe it. But This is the final 5 weeks before completing the degree and it has taken me 5 years to get this far. Linda P

yes william will be there - :-)

She,I will defenately be there on the 6th. I am just sorry that Vera and Jen and some of the others will not be there,have not seen Williams name what is he doing?

Hi She, I would love to come and see you all. Been going to M/C Catherdal for yonks, and still not been. If there is anything anyone would like me to buy for them (saves postage ) from Manchester & Lancashire Family History I will ony be to happy to do so. Denise, Manchester

Lou - roughly about three to four hours - depending on the traffic and how many speed cameras I spot. I'm coming down from Scotland (on my way home for Easter) so will be travelling down onto London afterwards which is about another four hours. I'll be the one curled up in the corner having a snooze

zoe how long will it take you 2 get to manchester, and how r you travelling ?

Zoe - I have an allergy to raw onions too! lol so you aint really odd - honest. Its going to be a good day :-)

She - erm. Don't know if I'm one of the ones you're waiting to confirm or not so YES PLEASE. I'll be a bit later than 11am I would think: my excuse being I'm fairly far away and I never get out of bed before 8am - EVER. I'm allergic to onions - which is never really a problem when eating out - I just thought I'd let everyone know how odd I am before I get there.

she iv just read that you need to know any dietary requirments, well im a veggie who doesnt eat eggs and not much cheese and wen i do eat cheese it has to be veggie cheese - sorry

Thanks for that really looking forward to it. Had a fantastic time at the Family History Fair today, so even more keen to come to Manchester! Linda

Linda - from about 11am - full details will be posted when I have a rough list next week- we can have the room if we have a meal in the cafe - they do a lovely range of meals - please contact me before the day if there are any special dietary requirements - vegetarian, vegan, diabetic. The staff there are superbe and will have something suitable for all

Colin - :-( - but have a wonderful anniversary - and many thanks for letting me know in plenty of time - maybe the next one? As for numbers - at the moment we are sitting on approx 25 people now - about 10 to confirm - if I could know by mid week - next week that would be great. she
