Oh wow - so we is one excited family waiting for the kids to arrive lol. Im waiting for (dunno If I already said it) Y 111. I saw after rummaging that you could actually get that instead of most of the site which just says Y67. SO we shall see what we shall see. As for waiting its very exciting and I have wanted to do this for a while. I have a family mystery to try and clear up. My grandfather was born out of wedlock. I have traced his father (well the one he was told was his father), and its not looking like it was. As His mum and his (perhaps) father, actually lived miles apart from each other. And The (perhaps) father only moved near the mother, to run a pub, about 6 months before they married. Also, my grandad had a twin. Which he didnt know about. He died before I did this.
I have a FF test in this batch and I haven't heard a thing yet. I noticed that someone with FF in batch 438 got their result on Dec 5, so I was hoping we'd have ours a week later, ie Dec 12, but it wasn't to be. Maybe the extra work brought by the sale has delayed things. Anyway, we can't complain, the due dates are Dec 28 and Jan 2 so let's hope we get the results by then.
Woke up this morning to find two emails from noreply at ftdna -
due date for results was 28 Dec and 11 Jan. However the two emails were two results strips woooo hooooo. So I now have 25 markers to examine. Only another 76 results to wait for lol. Y111 test kit. Well you have to really dont you lol. V Excited.
I to am waiting for batch 439 FF on my Son......plus I ordered a FF test kit on 30th Nov, and it has not arrived yet.... I know we are on the other side of the "pond" and Christmas is coming, its just so frustrating, still its a huge comfort, to be able to read this forum and realise we are not on our own, thank you everyone.

If I may make a suggestion you most likely thought of this already. If you are planning to give a kit as a present make an IOU FTDNA kit . You can do a print out of what does come inside the kit an the directions and I know somewhere their is a website that shows you everything you need to do from unpacking the kit to sending it back to FTDNA also put the web address in as well .
You can put everything in a envelope. May not be the real thing but may be the best you can do.
I hope you get your kit before Christmas have a wonderful Holiday.
Thats very kind of you, your suggestion, but this one I have ordered I have paid for, and its got to be forwarded to Ireland WHEN I get it, in the HOPES its going to verify (in the end) a relative/ half brother, of my Sons father.
The original kit came from Somerset in England, I don"t understand why this one is coming and taking so long from the States?!!!!!! I live in hopes maybes tomorrow?!!!!! Have a super Christmas everyone.
