stories wanted
« on: Friday 26 May 06 19:00 BST (UK) »
Just found this site and saw that the History Channel are looking for people who want to share their Family Histories

Here is the URL

http://www.thefamilyhistoryproject.co.uk/

Might be worth a look

Hi Carol,
               Only had a cursary glance but it looks like a "get your
credit card ready site" to me. Then again I might be cynical.
Be careful.

Hi Carol,
                If it's your husbands, go on  a spending spree
and claim temporary insanity,
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D

Wouldn't need to claim anything Tomkin as he would kill me lol


Much safer to pay by cheque for anything I need

Had a better look today and decided not to bother with it that much. They want stories that you have writen about your families and that is about it unless you want someone to do the work for you for about £150!!

Won't be bothering I don't think

Hi Carol,
                That was my impression. As to shopping on the
internet, I do loads and save a fortune. I make sure that my
Antivirus software is up to date and working correctly, as is
my firewall & spyware before I start. I only deal with sites that
I trust and use such as Paypal where applicable. If I am dealing
with unknown sites I usually " SandBox" my browsing.
All the best,
Tomkin
