General Chat

...... to all the lovely people I have befriended on this site.

I have had a really good laugh since joining in 2007, and have learned a lot from people, on where to research for free or subscription. I dont consider myself a complete novice any more lol.

To all those that have helped me I "thank you from the bottom of my heart".

It has been a hard decision to make, as I do enjoy reading peoples posts, whether it be sad news, good news or just a plain argy bargy row of a thread lol

I have done quite a bit in finding my ancestors, some have been quite an eye opener. I am not a name collector and have 267 people in my tree, but to me they are my family and am proud to have been able to find them. Especially as I was a foster child and lost touch with my real family.

I need to concentrate on my other hobbies, especially my harp, where obviously my board name derives from - I must get past Greensleaves and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star! LOL Also catch up with all my reading, knitting and watercolour painting. Gosh I am just so talented PMSL!

If there is anybody who would like to keep in contact, please do PM me and we can exchange Email Addy's.

I am still attending the Swansea Meet whether I am a GR member or not - I have got my tickets and am coming along WMSL. Another thing I have learned is all this shorthand speak, although cannot remember all of it so mostly stuck to LOL.

My membership runs out midnight tomorrow, so I still have time to have a few belly laughs on the boards or cry at the sad ones.

I wish you all peace, happiness and most importantly good health.

with lots of love,
God Bless

p.s. to those members who hate this sort of thread - tough!

:o lol

Don't think we've spoken much, but I have enjoyed reading your threads and comments. It's a pity so many members are leaving, but I suppose if you have achieved what you set out to in the way of doing your family tree, then it has been time well spent.

I joined to do the same, and found it without having to look, as rellies I hadn't seen for years, and one in Aus I didn't even know existed contacted me, they did it all for me. lol Just stuck with the Irish side of it.

Wishing you well in the future Tina.

So sorry to hear you are leaving. Enjoy the Swansea meet Jude offered me a lift, but I would need to be home again almost before the fun started, so had to decline. Was hoping to meet you all, but maybe if there is one in Gloucester or Hereford I will make it.

Well, what can I say?

My dear cyber peeps.

I have just told OH that peeps have been saying lovely things and burst into tears, he said daft bat, renew!

Yes it will be lovely to meet up at any of the meets, if I am able to attend.

Perhaps if I practice well and long enough on my harp will give you all a recital on YouTube. Now wouldn't that be a blast WMSL. Dont hold your breathe!!!

I think I have replied to all of you who have wanted to keep in touch, thank you. :))

But I have not gone yet I have another day left to leave my comments on your posts whether it be witty, serious or objectional LOL.

love and hugs to you all
Tina xxxx

Nooooooooo ! I will miss you so much!!! I will give you all my stuff and details etc at Swansea... but I am hopeless at e-mail!!

Love and ((((hugs))))) and a HUGE thank you for being there for me when I needed it..... just let me return the favour if you ever need it,

Love
