I've more or less called it a day on my family history and moved onto local history instead. Last years project was to take a photo of an ancient oak every week and make it into a time lapse video. This year I am using Twitter to highlight a different street in the town each week with photos and old postcards.
The Abbey in the town was attacked by Vikings so there is the occasional reenactment of that on the green where the abbey once stood, I haven't been tempted yet to join in!
