That's what I mainly do. I also look if I get notification that someone has replied to one of my comments and sometimes look at the most liked to see why!  ;D ;D

Am interested in this, but work lots. Have done my fair share of study in past. Will I learn anything?

Difficult to tell at the moment, as it is starting with the basics ie things we all know on here,  such as checking sources, not taking everything at face value, accepting that family stories may not always be completely true etc.

Thank you groom, I love for something to make me think, something that I don't know makes me ponder, or even open an new avenue of thought, l love learning, but it has to be an interest..

Enjoy all :)

Have a look at some of the other free Future Learn courses - I loved the one on England in the Time of Richard III, and also the one about Hadrian's Wall.
