	The UK's Passport Office is to be brought under Home Office control and made accountable to ministers, Home Secretary Theresa May has announced. The decision follows a summer of chaos at the service which saw thousands of holidaymakers affected by a backlog in applications. I wonder if the Home Secretary will re-organise it to make sure it is as effective as the departments responsible for our border and immigration controls - that she re-organised ;-)
	Researching: I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"
