	I have my talents...I just don't broadcast them all over this site! ;-) :-D :-D Maggie, I have no doubt that I can lay claim to having Shakespeare in my Family Tree, via my paternal grandfather who is still a brick wall. That was a very unfortunate spell that the witch cast on him :-D :-D :-D

	Aha! Witches! I may be a descendent from one of the Witch finders' (Matthew Hopkins) witches - Elizabeth Clark. Also (more relevant) my daughter named her GSD/Collie dog Hecate - Hex for short. Oh, it was ecstatic calling her back. The joy of standing in a park shrieking HEX!!!.

	Wasn't Hex also the forerunner of the computer, to be found in the Unseen University, so beloved by the late Sir Terry Prattchett? :-D

	Dear Allan Hello Please no whoosing the thread! We all have talents that we do not broadcast. Mine is cooking, the household has been on alert for years because it is truly awful. Do you know what? I am proud of my dismal cuisine efforts! Take gentle care all Love Elizabeth, EOS xx
