My Registrar guy is very helpful. He even Emails me to check if I still want the certificate if the information is not exactly what I have told him it should be. I would be stuck without him!!

This morning, I recieved 2 birth certificates for a brother and sister, born at the same address, 2 years apart. On one, the mother was stated as Joanna, on the other, Johanna. As I ordered them from the local office where they were registered, there was a note on the compliments slip, stating that the spellings were as written on the actual registers. Seems like we get a more personal service from local register offices, and that they had double checked their copying.
