When I searched your name on google you were the fifth one listed on the first page and it took me straight to your guild page. That seems very joined up.

I have had my profile page from basically the day I joined and I am yet to receive an enquiry through it. Obviously 'Edenborough' is extremely rare.

Better than nothing though I guess, with such a 'rare name'. With my separate Sillifant website, which is not even fully up and running, I have had three people already getting in touch and it's only been lurking about online since September this year. Thanks for your comments regarding Monday with Myrt - yes, a shame the website was down for 25 minutes which happened to coincide with the Hangout. Happens to the best of us and I seem to recall the Guild had a far more significant website outage when Anne was Webmaster some years ago. Sorry that the ethos of The Surname Society isn't for you and glad we managed to catch up, though briefly on Monday.
