Only one assignment left !

Well I know how I'll be spending my weekend ! I haven't yet started on my individual assignment although I have read most of what I'm going to use and have a few ideas in my head. I was terrified at the beginning of this course and am really pleased I stuck with it as there are so many useful things I've picked up and Gwen and I have loads of ideas we want to share with our colleagues in HEFT some of whom have already done 3Cs so are able to join in our enthusiasm. I managed to submit assignment 6 this afternoon, as a training session I had booked was cancelled and was able to think a bit more deeply about it than I've been able to with some of the others. Hopefully it will generate some comments.

The weekend beckons and apart from my assignment I am off to visit TOHs uncle tomorrow. He a smashing old boy who looks like a combination of Rolf Harris and Anthony Quinn ! He is nearly 80 and spends half his day on the computer. After his wife died a couple of years ago, I introduced him to the idea of compiling his family tree. He now has hundreds of names on it and is travelling all over the country finding new relatives and attending genealogy meetings and local history groups, it's given him a focus, which is great. I haven't yet convinced him to go onto Facebook, but there's still time !

Have a good weekend everyone.
