Looking at your pic, Jonesey, I think yours was probably before registration started!

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

I'm not showing there yet. Does that mean that I'm not as old as I look?

Was it not Groucho Marx who said that a man is as old as the woman he feels. ;-)

Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

me too - 1946/47 was definitely the baby boom when the men were all being demobbed.

the next baby boom was about when my elder son was born (1973) c1970-74 when all the original baby boomers started having their children My son's class was the largest at his primary school by a long way

don't think they've quite got that far with marriages yet Cynthia - only up to 1959 as yet

Researching:
Liverpool (Cartwright, Chambers, Miller), Todmorden (Sutcliffe, Mallison), Abergavenny (Watkins, Prosser)

I found mine, 1953 and was astonished to see I was born in Gosport.

No, 1947 seems to be that year.
If you look at the coverage charts
http://www.freebmd.org.uk/progressB.shtml
and the entriesFreeBMD has transcribed you will see 1954 is a fairly modest total although not yet complete
