I was looking at records at 11.30pm last night MtG and no problem with font size.

Good job really as I was busy for most of the weekend and thought I was going to miss the chance. Grabbed a few parish records which have opened another inroad :-D

I got onto the site no problem, and made several inroads to help my friend. However, when I returned to it at about 6pm last night, the free access had ended. So not really two whole days!

Still, it was good while it lasted.

Been along to have a look, you can't get past the create an account box unless you create an account, very missleading imo

Must be lots of people taking advantage of the free use, Ancestry is very slow and keeps timimg me out.

EDIT Also

The Ancestry.co.uk website will undergo scheduled maintenance on Monday, 24 February, from approximately 6:00 to 13:00 (GMT). During that time, some portions of the site may be unavailable. Thank you for your patience.

More new records being added?

Thank you for sharing this Prickles. There's a couple of things that I want to look at on there.
