Whatever I am doing on the computer, I am constantly checking the tips board. Am I obsessed? Worried I might miss something. Am I alone? |

No, you are not alone. I keep looking as maybe I can help someone. Maybe I have, but not everyone comes back to say whether what I have found is useful or not. Their computer has probably overheated and thrown a wobbly. |

Hi, Log on to internet, check e-mail, check tips board, check Guest Board, Tips Board, then again to see new replies, then again, then realise 2 hours have passed. Re log on and the cycle starts again. No wonder my house is neglected. Janet |

Sue The poems are definitely talking about me. Who on seeing Christine's original message would be obsessed enough to put "Genealogists Anonymous" into Google? You guessed it! David |
