When given sites and instructions by others try them out for yourself first, if your still confused or can't work them then ask again for help, it's more rewarding when you find it yourself then others searching it all for you and you learn with the experience of it......

When you post a request, take a minute to read it before clicking the 'add message' button. Make sure that any dates you have quoted are correct, also that anyone else reading it will be able to understand what you are trying to say. So many postings recently are very difficult to interpret, and are littered with inaccuracies, which wastes time and causes untold frustration........ Reg

no 100 last nudge for me, of this very important thread. I wish everyone starting out on this long journey into the past, the very best of luck. You'll always get loads of invaluable help from the more 'experienced' folks on the boards ........ and then one day you will find yourself helping others. It's a fantastic hobby, but not without it's expense .... and there will be times when you NEED to purchase a certificate or two if you want your FT to be complete and accurate. I really do wish each and everyone of you the very best ..... Elaine ;-)
