I'd definitely buy one......and what a way to advertise!   8)
Dee       :)

You might get a few funny looks wearing that Dee - considering the slang meaning for the Root part of RootsChat.  ;)

 ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

I see you can get badges saying "I love (heart symbol) TROVE" - saw one on someone at the weekend.

Draffan: Lesmahagow,Douglas,Coylton, Consett

Aha a follow-up mini-survey.  I wonder if we all got this?  (of those who supplied e-mail).

I didn't think it was so much that the questions in original survey were repetitive - rather my answers :-[
To questions like "why did I use trove so often", "why would I recommend it to a friend" and "why would I be likely to use it in the future" my answers were pretty similar.

(I'm a trove addict)

cheers,
