  1. Phew. I did a 600 mile round trip yesterday to pick up our new printer. We can now print charts that will last 200+ years!
  2. Our move to new premises is beginning to take shape. Planning started in earnest yesterday. A million and one things to organise.
  3. There's a bank holiday offer for 10% off the Flip-Pal scanner on our Facebook page facebook.com/MyHistoryShop Offer ends tomorrow.
  4. Excellent family history fair at Pudsey yesterday. @JackieDepelle did a great job of getting visitors through the door. Roll on 2013.
  5. We have to wait until 15 June before we move and staff members are already fed up with hearing me say 'When we move' we will do this n that.
  6. Yippee. We are going to move. In June we expect to move to a new unit where we will have 3x more space to accomodate our new projects.
  7. Don't forget the Sheffield Family History Fair - Saturday 21 Apr - Centre in the Park - Norfolk Park - Sheffield - 10-4pm free admission.
  8. Just received huge 1907 directory of Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Over 3000 pages! A big scanning project in itself.
  9. Just received a great trade directory for suffolk covering all major towns and villages in all the hundreds. We will publish on CD in 2012.
  10. @familyhistorysh @genejean I agree, you can't feature Yorkshire without the Borthwick. Sheffield has some great archives and archivists.
  11. Waiting for more figures for our new premises. We now have a choice of two but the one next to the sewage works may have to go.
  12. good to hear @alangodfreymaps is tweeting after the operation. Electricity being off for so long must be frustrating.
  13. Family Historian upgrades arrive today and we have hundreds to send out. It looks like verson 5 is going to be very popular.
  14. @FriendsReunited I spent longer than I intended on it last night but I rather like it. The Francis Frith images are a great resource.
  15. I have just listed: 'Family Historian 5', for £38.95 via @amazon amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00…
  16. FamilyHistorian v5 arrived at long last and first orders are going out today.
  17. @Bradfordww1 The new version of FH creates books with contents, page numbering and index. This alone makes it and very worthwhile upgrade.
  18. Family Historian v5 coming into stock on Mon or Tue. my-history.co.uk order today for early delivery
  19. New offer on Facebook starts today. £15 off Flip-pal scanners for students and genealogists. Go to my-history.co.uk for FB link.
