Who Do You Think You Are?

The other day a couple of us got together and, in an hour and half, planned out something we’ve been wanting to get started for ages. We met at the old chapel, where the town keeps its archives, and registers, and local history collection, and mapped out a weekly two hour drop in session for family history enquirers (increasing all the time post BBC series); a quarterly family history group offering, as they say, topics of interest; see if we can get a group together to do the life story course; and a heritage open day event in September on the Saturday when English Heritage encourages us all to get our churches, castles, windmills, forges and everything else we can think of in terms of heritage buildings open to the public. All done by 12.30 and then into the Little Pub with the Big Brewer for lunch with delicious beer and scrumptious sausage flan (sorry quiche).
