I might! I usually check the numbers about once every week or fortnight.

But also I might ask them about it on Facebook when I'm on my other computer later.

My Mum was born in May 1921 and her record opened up in the August offerings this year. However, I had sent a copy of my mum's death certificate to them three times (she died in 2012) for them to open her record. I knew she was a trainee nurse at Addenbrookes in Cambridge but they said each time she wasn't there. She was there of course - with correct name, future married name andcorrect DOB. Makes you wonder if they know what they are doing.

I think I stopped wondering that a while ago!! That's terrible though - once, mabe, but to have asked three times.

Gosh, that's brilliant. I'd always assumed they'd do it annually. It has been taking such a long time for deaths to be released recently.
