My name's Katie, I'm 31 years old and I live in North East Wales. I've been unemployed for quite a while now and have started to look at the possibility of setting up my own business. I chose my username as I will shortly be setting up a website with the same name: my business idea is a genealogy (family tree research for the uninitiated ;)) research firm.

Welcome to the forum Katie. I think a few of us got started in business under similar circumstances. I know I did. Interesting idea. Genealogy is certainly popular so there will be a large market for your research services. I assume it's something you feel passion about too.

I'm glad you decided to join and say hello and thanks for joining the community.

Welcome to SBF, Katie. I've been doing genealogy myself, off and on, for more than 40 years. I'll be interested to hear your plans for turning your interest into a business.

Hi Katie,

Glad to have you here. What's the "bones" part of your username about?

Welcome along, Kate.

It sounds a great idea. My uncle does genealogy, and recently did one for me on my father's side - fascinating.

Whoops, sorry for ignoring this thread for ages - I have actually been working for the past month on a temporary contract which I am loving, but am eager to find something more permanent, whether that be working for myself or someone else. As for bones-genealogy, that will be the name of my website when I get around to setting it up.

I shall endeavour to be more active on these forums from now on :)

Katie

No worries Katie. We're glad you decided to come back.
