:-D :-D :-D 15 years in Dec...obviously can't count! Gosh where have those 15 years vanished to?

Trying to remember. Wasn't there a General thread and a chat thread and the two were eventually put together?

Just checked and the Hobbies thread started in 2013 so that has been there ten years. Not that it is visited much these days.

This made me look at how long I’ve been here - 17 years almost exactly. Which means I’ve been researching my family tree for so much longer. Never really thought about it before.

It doesn't really seem like 20 years does it? And when I joined I never thought I would be 'here' for that long. It has been mostly fun though. :-D
