What's your favourite part of Rootschat?
« on: Sunday 17 September 06 21:39 BST (UK) »
Just wondered which part of Rootschat everyone liked the most

I find I am forever browsing through the Common Room, Lighter side and Photo restoration

That's very difficult  ;) ;)

It depends what catches my eye at a particular point in time. My ancestors got around a bit so I get around the country/county boards. I'm also interested in photo restoration, Technical stuff  and free webspace. And, of course the Common Room and the Lighter side.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm

Haven't voted yet

PS I'm just a Rootschat addict, in case you hadn't noticed  ;D

I love to get onto the countryboard and like to scout about to see if I can pick up someone searching the same family as me .I also enjoy a chat with other members on the lighter side.

Sometimes get a good laugh and find I have so-many friends to ask for help
Keep it up

I agree, it's difficult.
Enjoy the Kent and Hampshire boards - home territory for me.
Chat room is great for fast look ups and good company
Lighter side is a good laugh
Always amazed at what can be achieved on the photo restoration board.

There is something for everyone on Rootschat.
