Try searching from:

You still have to sign in but it seems to work much faster.

Thanks for that - tho I would have preferred confirmation that I'm not a sob!
I've tried the 'no need to register' search as well as signing in - AND I now find I had the information filed under the wrong family.
Anyone with a hobnailed boot?
EDIT,

I think that the magnifying glass used to move in a circular motion while the site was searching - ? - it too is stuck.

Oh darn!

Has anyone else had trouble getting a search done on this? For the past couple of weeks it just sits and sulks - unless you click on gift shop, or donate, or....whereupon it is instantaneous.
Or has it, at long last, realised that I'm a sob that doesn't like parting with money? ;-)
