Perhaps Margaret should have called them 'A dunkeness of genealogists' by the sound of it !

sorry, I haven't had any notification for this thread ::), so have not replied before.

Actually they were quite mild :-X
But everyone wants to tell their story so if we can steal the geese one and call them :
a gaggle of genealogists.

Thats strange, cause I got notification for your reply  ;)  ;D

I was under the impression that we get notification for The Lighter Side, but no points added to posts, for Totally Of Topic, no notification and no points added to posts.
I have always had notifications for anything I have put in for the Lighter side.
