PSA

I'm still tired from yesterday, but a head's up (via a genealogy news feed I follow) in case it's of any use to other people:

Find My Past (one of the big online genealogy sites for the UK) are allowing free access to their main UK collections till 26th June. (No strings attached for this one, not even fake-orders to get it; only registering if you haven't already.)

Some more details & instructions on the site's blog: https://blog.findmypast.com/free-british-irish-records-2445715211.html

I've never seen 'scuttles' spelt with a 'k' before - is that a regional variation or just your poor tired brain? (Genuine question, not me being petty.)

Hope you recover soon. Have fun with the site!

Thank you. :) And feel better soon. Do you have plenty of tea and (nice, dark, dairy free) chocolate? Also James Maxwell (arguably less tasty, theoretically just as dairy free).

Gasp! No tea?! I'm glad you have other nice things though, and that James Maxwell and Julian Glover, and their mass-murdering ways, are helping you get back on your feet. :D

That was a huge favourite of my mother's at the time. I always found it rather disturbing! Another of those shows that I must get around to trying one day. I can't help thinking that if they made it now, everybody would look far too neat and tidy, a la the recent "Survivors" remake. They certainly did it very well at the time though.

I hope at least you're collapsing somewhere near David Collings.
