Encounters with RoyaltyMy good friend Jonathan once had to entertain the Queen whilst she had her portrait painted. The night before he was panicking as he didn't know any clean jokes.
Have you met someone royal? Are you royal? We'd like your story...

Family tree researchis very boring when your parents are constantly nicking your laptop to update their trees and going on about it constantly etc.
It's interesting when you find out that you're descended from William the Conqueror and that your ancestors were the Earls of Mar and possibly Scottish royalty. I can't remember the exact details but considering there is a place in Scotland named after us (Erskine), it's probably all true.
It's also interesting that when you go further down the tree (down to the proles like us) and find out that your parents have a common ancestor, making me, possibly technically, inbred. Woo!
