	Have new folks seen the thread on "10 tips for newbies"? All meant in fun - but worth taking note! Now is your chance to have a go at the "oldies". I'll start you off. 1. Always answer queries ridiculously quickly then get cross because the person who has started the thread has another life. 2. Never read what is actually asked for but paste endless census reports, especialy when what is wanted is a marriage record. 3. Have a thrombie if an obviously new person has never heard of freebmd. I'm sure there are more (oldies feel free to add to this !!) Jan
