Hi everyone, the above is a really brilliant site, gives so much details, written as a sort of guide by Charles Dickens, lists hospitals, schools, hotels (gives prices!), railways, excursions on trains, police districts, so much info at first hand. http://www.victorianlondon.org/dickens/dickens-h.htm PS, Have you noticed GR has once again listened to us and now we dont have to do all those brackets or asterisks when we give an url?

Agreed, its a great site. I've just experimented and actually GR are still blocking .*co, .*com and any other . with a word beginning with (co) after it. They have always allowed other .s in email addresses. Judith

Hi, sorry but the guys on the other board tell me you still can do it if there is a dot come address. Oh well, excited for the minute, eh?
