About three or four months ago i began tracing my family origins and the prospect of building a family tree here at G R.

After navigating through uncharted territory I found a community message board with a ' Trying To Find ' option, and thought ..." great, this could be what I was looking for" to further my chances of being successful in what started as just a whim.

Little did I realise that I would get in touch with some of the most wonderful people one could wish to ' Meet ' with such an eagerness to help me in my quest.

Now, not being message board savvy, i was at the mercy of the, obviously , 'regular' contributors and surly advised on the protocol of 'postings', and i thank you all for that.

But me being me, I think i may have rubbed against the grain on the odd occasion and probably was a bit out of line. But I think that was mainly due to misunderstandings and such like as conversation is best being 'done ' Face to Face for the reactionary feedback so you know your not ' upsetting' anyone.

Now then, after the, what, three weeks or so of me being a postie on this here board, I can honestly say that I've enjoyed it immensely and wish to continue.

I think my trade mark is FUN and I think it should be as I believe ( in my case ) Genealogy is a hobby mainly and you should enjoy it as such and leave the oh so serious aspect of it to those whom make a living from it.

Now then, again, I didn't delete the thread intentionally, being a gormless person, in my infinite wisdom I thought I'd ' clip ' the thread down a bit to make it more navigable and POOPH!! the lot went up the swanny!!..............all your hard work.....gone!! What a plonker I am and I want to apologise for that. Sorry ( lowers head ) ....

BUT......the good news is what you've all been waiting for arrived this morn....yes.....yes..... it's Grace's birth cert ( am I forgiven ?)
