I was delighted when I came on GR this afternoon (for the first time in ages!) and saw that there was someone that had 4 or 5 Hot Matches (and my family tree is very small!). So I viewed them and was surprised to see me and my dad and grandad etc. etc. So I mailed this person and thought to myself - eventually I can expand my family tree (if the person replies).

Recently, I have carried out alot of research and found nothing related to me and now to finally be on the right tracks (although whether or not I'll go off again, no-one knows) is very...exciting (I tried to find a more...exciting word but exciting is the most exciting word I can think of just now). Hopefully the person replies, and hopefully I can finally find out about the Reffins.
