As it costs so much to have an item repaired most people throw out & buy new

Go to www.repaircafe.org to find your nearest one

Record offices often have collections of transcriptions of some of their holdings and these can act as a finding aid when looking at the original registers. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #TopTip

I've discovered eco friendly refillable solid deodorants 🥳
I have tried many 'natural' antiperspirant/deodorants and none have done the trick
I gave Fussy a go and love it. Great smell, refillable, natural, compostable and it's effective (I'm not on commission!)

#toptip SAVE MONEY with your record collection. Instead of buying Once in a Lifetime by Texas, just listen to your copy of Creep by TLC whilst dropping marbles on a xylophone #totp

An advantage of microfilm and electronic images is that you can zoom in on sections that are hard to read. However, the technical quality varies. Sometimes, pages have been omitted from filming, been only partly filmed or are in the wrong order. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #TopTip

When folk you’re not keen on say “See you later”, requesting specification of location and time often works as social repellant. #TopTip

Singing along loudly to ‘Both Ends Burning’ by Roxy Music on the short drive to work certainly sets you up day. 💫

And in the case of indexing on Ancestry.
🚩newer indexes for documents like parish registers appear to be all AI and very badly done. Clearly no checks.
Best method is to go back to basics & go though the books page by page, like to old days on Microfiche.

Every index should be treated with caution. As well as errors and gaps in the original records, the indexers themselves may have made mistakes. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #TopTip

Airline check-in staff: If you spot a passenger trying to check in her luggage while underdressed for the plane, on no account say anything. The looks on her face and that of her travelling companion when she gets told to cover up or stay on the ground will be priceless! #TopTip

PSA
don’t like listening to podcast ads in apple podcasts?
select the ‘follow along’ transcript, and when an ad comes on, touch the first sentence of the next (as yet unplayed) paragraph in the transcript
recording will leap straight there
