Christine I don't appear to be having a problem with the site at the mo (touch wood) Which is unusual for me, I usually feel like throwing the PC out of the window. What are you looking for, can I help? Margaret

I've been using freeBMD quite a bit over the last couple of days. If I get a Not Available notice or something similar, I just click on Back, count to 10, and click Search again. Most times it comes through the second time. Jan.
