Mmmm well...That seems to fit, thanks for the diagnosis mowsehowse  ;D

I know smokers etc. get help with their 'addiction' i.e. do you think if I visit my GP now that I know what the problem is, he will give me a 'Fancestry' Prescription...Oh.. I mean 'Subscription'   ??? ::)

I knew this would make us all smile.

Rosinish Perhaps I should ask Jeremy Vine to discuss the ramifications of symptoms and a "Fancestry 'scription" with Dr Sarah.....  ;)

It's called BGI . . "benign genealogical insomnia"

It's why I think of "Oft in the Stilly Night" as a suitable anthem for us. A bit sad maybe?

Oft in the stilly night
ere slumbers chains have bound me
Fond memory brings the light
Of other days around me

...but it's in those wee small hours that I often have a light bulb moment [either for myself or whoever's query I am contributing to on rootschat] so the insomnia pays off.  Love the idea of the 'prescription', Annie. And, yes, rootschat does keep me going too, thanks everyone  ;D
