Forget terms like geneaholic and anorak. Think serious researcher, or enthusiast! nell ps people on this site often talk about cleaning or housework. Are they archaic occupations, I haven't found them on the census?! |

I end up doing a juggling act between my family history and updating 3 websites and completely revamping a 4th. Housework? Whats that then |

Money?? I didn't know you had to pay money for certs. In Australia you just fill out a form and put the numbers off your little plastic card on the form, and you get your cert. You don't have to put any money in the envelope. |

I've been an anorak all my life, I just find different ways in which to demonstrate it. |

Just who wants to spend their day washing cleaning and polishing? This is a hobby where you can delve into history and discover who you really are, what can be more inspiring than that? |

I only spend ten minutes a day on this site and a further ten minutes doing my research. This is so that I can get on with my washing, cooking cleaning etc. I only buy two certs a year, so that I can use my money more sensibly to buy dish-cloths and shoe polish etc. I do not litter my desk with a thousand scraps of scribbled on paper. You see - this hobby has made a real liar out of me! TGx |
