T-6 till #genchat on Blueksky!

Today's tip: on Bluesky, there are 3 ways to follow the #genchat conversation:
1 - put the hashtag #genchat in the search bar & select latest; you probably need to refresh;
2 - follow the official #genchat feed. Caveat: there is a few-seconds delay;

I thought I was back at university on Monday 6th January, but actually just checked and am not back till the 13th January! Which is brilliant as it means I can get on with some new year family history projects which I’ve been hired to do! #exciting #familyhistory #genealogy #genealogist

That’s the first client report done, 3 months of research and incredible life’s lived. Can’t wait for my Aunt to get this for my Uncle for Christmas!

This is me. Non Genealogy post here BUT I’ve been on a weightloss journey for the last 8 months, and I’m down almost 4 stone!

I’m the most happy and confident person I’ve ever been and that’s an incredible thing for me to be and see in myself.

I finally like and love who I am.
