No matter what question we ask on here, somebody usually knows the answer. (about anything, not just genealogy.)

Always support for any worries no matter how trivial they may be.

I have had a lot of contacts and regained contact with my cousin's son.

I have had so many laughs.

I have been encouraged with hobbies - card making, scrapbooking and writing.

I enjoy the 'company' of like minded readers and exchanging views on books we read.

Positive things :)

First off amazing help with my tree, especially when i started out and with my first query got some info on Lightermen that made all else possible really with one side of family. Contact from cousins that filled in lots of gaps...including photo's I didn't have.

Great amounts of laughter when I needed it most,
friends that I hope to keep always, especially one who I would walk on hot coals for, and do, metaphorically if nothing else lol.

Having met some lovely people , and having the chance to know others for a short while who encouraged and inspired, and made me a slightly better person maybe, with their example of selflessness.

xx

add : and since it was the first site i ever joined, it's given me confidence in my computer skills...an easy forum to use and find my way around when i could barely turn the comp 'on :))
