GB

one of them did post last year that it was now going to be done once a month ......... so I guess it was due today :-)


It IS WDYTYA weekend, and GR staff would have been busy there in previous years and that would have been the excuse, but it doesn't look as though they even have a stand this year.


Pretty poor showing, IMHO


Maybe they were scared to go outside London to B'ham :-)

Well I think that more than 2 weeks they should have put in an appearance by now otherwise what is the point of having that position.

The last suggestions round-up was on 16th March, when obviously there were no suggestions to round up!

Perhaps everyone has given up making suggestions which aren't acted on.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

They only do the Suggestions once a month no, and I think the new Community Manager was introduced to us just a day or two after the last Round-up ....................


so it isn't time for an appearance yet :-)

They are under "News" next to the "search" option but i don't think they are mentioned on the boards - not even under "announcements"
