I am not very organized with my #OnePlaceStudy at the moment. I am guided by the random pieces of information I find. I have found a book of the history of the next parish and I am rrying to note down anything referring to my parish before I have to return it to the library.

I want to recommend a very interesting book. 'Another Man's War' by Barnaby Phillips. The story of a Burma Boy in Britain's forgotten African army. Nigerians fighting for Britain in Burma. #BlackHistory #ForgottenArmy #Chindits #Burma #WorldWarII

I have started a #oneplacestudy of the parish of Salwarpe in Worcestershire. I have not registered it yet as I have just started. It is my first serious #localhistory project.

I have not worked out this place works yet. If there is any etiquette about who you should follow or unfollow.

Are other newbies as confused as I am? I was never on Twitter so cannot use that as a guide. I have joined someones starter pack so I am following lots but don't know who. I am waving not drowning.
