This is great news. Aswell as Paul being a star, which we all know he is, I hope Rootschat was highlighted.

By the way I was talking about Rootschat at the Lincolnshire archives today. Any opportunity!!!!

Hey, I only came up with the idea of the Rootschat Challenge and Censuswhacking -  its the members of Rootschat who have made both such a success. :)

And its the work that Sarah and Trystan have put into developing this site that have made it so popular with us members!

Its great that the media have been so active in covering Rootschat these last few months! :)

cheers

Paul

In that case everyone should take the credit, but especially you three. We should all celebrate, how about that party in the Algarve we were talking about in York!!!
