Hi all, A quick note to say that I'm reluctantly moving on from using the TS forum - life's getting just a bit too busy these days! I'll still be floating around in other spheres, so will see a few of you around from time to time! Cum an eachdraidh na h-Albainn beo, is le gach deagh dhurachd, Chris :)

Gateshead National Family History Fair
Hi all,
I'm helping the organisers of the National Family History Fair at Gateshead on Saturday, travelling down tomorrow (Fri) to help set it up. I'll have a nice friendly name badge on, so do say hello if you are there!

Hi Chris, Thanks for letting us know about the holiday. Would be frustrating to travel to Edinburgh, only to find out that everything was closed. Regards, Ina Coming from Northern Ireland, and despite living here since 1997, I still have not got used to the various different regional holidays aroun...
