You know when you're obsessed with FH when...

I knewI was an addict when I woke up thinking 'Today is Sam Westwood's 170th birthday'....

you have so many FH links on that Favourites list that it's quicker to just tap the name of the website into Google rather than trawl through your Favourites list looking for it!  

when you have a special folder in your favourites called Genealogy
 - - and it's so big that you have to have some sub-folders as well!

And when your genealogy folder is bigger than the rest of your favouries!

Gosh, not thought of that one.  I've got 18 assorted Genealogy files in my Outlook mail box, filing mails from different parts of the family.......perhaps a bit extreme, now I come to think of it......

Not at all Igor.

I do that and I have one for you too.

....................you catch a glimpse of the label on your herb pot plant on the kitchen windowsill that says "Living Coriander".............and for one teensy-weensy split-second you think you could be related 

Oh dear.

You want to rush away from the morning family breakfast to find out more on the death of 3xgreat grandad Joe Bloggs.

When you see a name from your family tree in the local newspaper & wonder if you are related. If it's in the hatched, matched & dispatched, you wonder if you should cut it out & file it, just in case, especially if it's the death of a very old person.
When chatting to someone & they mention their surname you have to resist asking if they have done any family history, especially if it's a fairly unusual name.
I know a Hathaway, now who wouldn't like to get their hands on that name

The worst one is knowing your credit/debit card number off by heart because you use it so much for certificate, subscriptions etc

Lay awake half the night wondering how you can convince OH that your next holiday really must be to Kenya (somewhere I've never wanted to go before) and the highlight would be a visit to the butterfly museum that was founded by my third cousin twice removed.
