	Due to my circumstances l haven't done anything to my family tree for quite a few months but think its worth the £9.95 for the chat and friendliness on here.( have just renewed this afternoon for another 6 months) :))) so l am a member of the social club, lol.

	I am still interested in my tree but most lines need RO visits to go back any further so I guess I am on here for the chat, the company, the writing group, the reading group, scrap booking group etc etc. well worth the money to me.

	I use GR for chat, cos I am on my lonesome a lot but so many people help me on the other boards with my tree problems. My tree isn't on here as I found the hot matches a nightmare. I do search for possible rellies on GR though. Sue xx

	mmmm good question. I still big time do genealogy mine aswell as friends but I guess I used chat on GR more now as I seem to have gone as far as I can with my tree on here. Although I have spent most of the weekend looking for Williamson/ Jefferson/Gloag connections on here. Mainly I've been looking as they can't find me as it's not my tree so it's not on here... lol did you want a simple yes or no answer !

	I am more of a social animal as well, these days, lolol..... I no longer have the stamina for the long searches I used to make... and by tomorrow I will have forgotten/mislaid my notes from today... my head just doesn't retain new information like it used to. I find it frustrating. So... I pay my pennies to be in the GR Social Club, lolol!! Love Daff xxx
