Congratulations! I don't think I have any chance of that happening - my lot have to get a new birth certificate every time they need it for anything cos they can never find the last one!! I can see them all coming to me for copies next time round!!

...........my aged mother-in-law has been having a clearout and in a cupboard she has found what I think is a treasure trove (no-one else seemed to get as excited as me put it that way!) I now have my mother & father in laws birth certs both c1920, his first marriage cert, his daughters birth cert, his divorce papers, birth certs for twins that everyone assumed were miscarried early in pregnancy, miltary papers, death certs, the lists goes on and on. It turns out my husbands grandmother was actually 15 years older than her daughter realised. No the wonder I couldn't find her anywhere. Off to do some searching Kay
