Yes, Margaret - it IS like a family. I joined Accyweb initially as I had come across this forum in my research re family history and I found that I was able to get answers from members to some of my queries re my husband’s Accrington connection. I was overwhelmed by the quick response and the help so generously given.

By that time I felt I was part of the Accyweb family and there was no way I was leaving it, at least not willingly! I was addicted!!!! Since then I have enjoyed some very interesting threads and postings – admittedly sometimes controversial (but isn’t that what makes a good discussion so much more interesting) – many chuckles, felt shared sadness over illnesses and loss, learnt a wealth of knowledge about the area and so much more.

I am one of those who enjoy putting my bit in when I have an opinion or a comment to make (as may have been noticed!!!), but most of all I enjoy reading the postings from other members. I must admit that sometimes I get rather hot under the collar over some postings (and the odd member or two – oops!) but that’s another story. Although I have never met any of the members personally I feel I do know so many of them.

So right now I am enjoying my morning coffee and a good read to start the day…..
