My hubby makes fun of me but seems to spend a lot of time standing next to me commenting on the threads and suggesting my replies. I asked him if he'd like to join himself and that sent him scurrying away lol Sarah xx

My hubby too has complete control of the remote every evening,plus as we retired he can do his own thing during the day with reading & listening to his music. BUT i get so annoyed with him when he critisises how much time I spend on the PC. Have said to him ' You do what you like to do,& I like to do what interests me. THe house & meals dont suffer because I.m doing my hobby'. But he doesnt seem to grasp it. Not going to stop me tho!.I,m an Aries who normally flits from interest to interest after a short while,but this geneology thing has me well & truely hooked & I aint going to change. Feel, when your retired, its good to have a hobby which you enjoy.It hasnt taken me over completely tho I hasten to add. Shirley
