Hi **Liz in Scotland**

Wow, many thanks for that. :-))))

I'm guessing that that is directly from SP and not the other place?!! LOL I know this because of the spelling of the surname! LOL

Yes, that is the correct family in 1851, thank you. :-)))

Hi Cathy, yes I've managed to add my query, but only by removing all the details........which doesn't make life very easy for the helpers does it!?

And I can't even send it by pm. Utterly ridiculous! :-(((

I have had a major problem trying to add info to someone else's therad.

I tried to post some IGI details.......nowhere near the 8000 character limit, and I got the 'website error' page.

Couldn't even send it by PM....had to resort to getting the person's e-mail and sending it that way.

Utterly stupid........but then, so are a lot of things on here now.

One of the most infuriating things is being sent to the indivdual 'surname' board when one clicks on 'trying to find' under boards summary having posted to - or even just looked at - a trying to find thread

Hi Flick

Yes I saw yours and a couple of others.......but it just won't accept mine! :-((

I'm beginning to wonder if I smell or something LOL. But seriously, I wondered if it was because I had included some census details but even taking all that out it still won't accept my post! :-(((

Hi all

Anyone else having the same problems today?

I've been trying to ask for help in both the help clinic and on the ttf boards and can't add at all - I just keep getting the error message.

Just wondered if it was only me as I can see other threads being posted by other peeps okay. :-((
