is anyone still waiting for their c.d. from freecens? i'm still waiting for mine! nearly 3 weeks now!!!!!!! thought they were desperate for transcribers!! chris.

Christine did you see my copy of the email I had sent from Carol on the please help freecens thread about the CDs? I'm sure it will arrive soon, I will help you tap your fingers till it does arrive..Best wishes, Jo

Mine only arrived a couple of days ago - but I have not had any instructions, or told what to download yet! Jo - can you help me out please? ' Isobel

Isobel I will nudge up the other thread thats going for help for you to see. You need to down load sscens from the free cen web site and that has all the things you need to get started. Good luck, Jo

Jo, i emailed my co-ordernater "bernedette", and she replied today and said she would find out when it was sent out from the makers,so fingers crossed!! yes i did see your thread. i'll let you know when it arrives. chris.

christine my co ordinator is also bernadette wat area are you doing? im doing gloucester 1861 ive just managed to work out how to do it with a lot of help from my gc friends,but now i cant read the bleeding writing argggggggg susie

susie, "WHEN" i get my cd i will be doing bristol st pauls, how long did you wait for your cd to arrive? no doubt when i get it i'll be on here asking for advice!! chris.

Jo - thanks, but now I've realised that if I download it will be on my son's pc, so may as well wait until next weekend when he goes back to uni - we cant network both pc's to be on at same time. Will be no doubt yelling out for help then! Christine - it took 6 weeks for my cd to arrive, so don't give up hope, mind you now that I see the written pages ....... Isobel

hi christine i waited just under 3 weeks,so yours should be here shortly i have been pestering everyone for advice cos i found it really confusing at first(still am but getting there)lol susie

thanks susie, fingers crossed eh!! i'll let you know when it "FINALY"arrives!! chris.

Hi Christine, Don't listen to Susie - it's dead easy - everyone else but her got it first time ;-) LOL Seriously though, you'd think they would give out a standard link to instructions that more people could understand first time. I honestly didn't find it at all easy at first. Just as well we can all call on each other for help. I'm still struggling with the writing and the terrible quality of the images - only done 3 pages so far. I see you're doing Bristol. What's your connection ? I live there ! Rick.

Rick, my ancesters came from warwick,is bristal near there?if not,forgive me! i'm not up on geography,but that's why i'm doing it,they came from that area. chris.
