***COMPLETED***AMAZING!!! MY GOOD NEWS!
« on: Sunday 03 April 05 19:56 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

A couple of days ago I did a look up for a new Rootschat member and noticed in her profile that she was in Shropshire.  So, I sent her a PM saying Welcome to Rootschat etc etc and asked where in Shropshire she was.

Well, she lives in the same town as me, and it turns out that I already know her!!!! We went to infant school together, so we have known each other since we were about 5 years old!!!!!

She lives about a 10 minute walk from me, and her sister lives just round the corner :o

I still can't quite believe it.........needless to say, we are going to have our own mini Rootschat meet to discuss our family trees ;D ;D

Jan :D :D ;)

Hi Jan,

what wonderful news ! 

I suppose the only advance on that, is that your next look-up turns out to be for your next-door neighbour  ;D ;D ;D

Have a great RootsChat Mini-Meet !

Hi Bob,

I would be extremely worried if my next door neighbours turned up on the 1861 Census :o :o  That would mean I am living next door to ghosts :o LOL LOL

Jan

I long for the day I have somebody to discuss my family tree with and show it to.  As soon as I start mentioning any ancestors they all glaze over.  I can't imagine why???  ??? ::) ::)

Kerry,

If you lived by me I would be more than happy to discuss your family tree ;) ;)

You never know.....one day you may find someone.  I'll keep my fingers crossed ;D


Jan

P.S. I know you are in East Sussex but is there any chance of you coming to the York Meet in May?  We could discuss our trees then!!!!

Hi Jan

I would love to come to York, unfortunately it clashes with a boating holiday in the Norfolk Broads and I had better keep my partner sweet!
