I’m going to trace my family history. Yep, I thought about doing it last year and didn’t, so I’ve signed up with Ancestry UK and I’m going to see how far back I can go.

What about you?
 
Do more photography, simples. Last year was almost a write-off for various reasons. May investigate starting a new hobby of some sort though, as I'm losing interest in ham radio.
 
I would have thought the ham radio would keep you in touch with the world!

Much the same here photography wise, I've spent far too much (enjoyable) time with the Kingfishers for the last 6 years. I do have a new project in mind, which is in fact, underway and I'd like to do that justice but again, it will take time. I've promised myself though, I will spend more time with landscapes too.

An old friend of mine was a 'ham', I used to marvel at the gear he had, mainly Yaesu and Kenwood, so much so, I went out and bought a Kenwood HiFi system, when Kenwood knew how to make them too. The smell of the valves and the clicks of the relays is something I won't forget about my pal's rigs. He had a tower in the garden that extended to about 40 feet.

Sorry, I digress,

I don't do resolutions, I feel they bring a pressure to succeed, then disappointment when they fail. Hats off to those that make them work though ....... respect. I would like to lose a little weight, not much, enough to help me get fitter as I do struggle on the hills sometimes, getting short of breath but I will take my time doing it. (y)

I don't really do New Year Resolutions either, but I'm certainly going to make more effort with getting my camera out this year.
 
don't have any to make apart from build more vintage computers, move a load of gear to house in Gran Canaria got a deal on 200kgs for £200 on a small pallet

I don't do resolutions, but I did sign up to Ancestry UK for a while, and learned a fair bit about my family history, but not everything published there is correct.

According to Ancestry UK I'm dead, reading that shook my confidence in them a bit:)
