I was hoping that once it comes online you Brits are all going to go to bed nice and early and give us Canadians a chance at it! Margaret

I have just announced to my family that the 1841 census will be released soon & that I will have lots to do etc. My announcment has been met with a lot of strange bewildered looks! Its good that everyone on here understands the importance of everything else being put on hold when this release arrives!

Well Glen, you can be appointed convener. I think if everyone goes to the highest point in their district and starts building a bonfire right now it would be a good idea. Please ensure you have a supply of white candles to watch flickering as you hug yourself in your duvets.

Carrie and Penny, cancel the holiday Brenda, maybe not a coincidence? Pat, tell mum youve made a mistake, you will do her birthday on her offical one the week after Sunny, tell the neice you know he has been cheating on her Kat, become an OPC Debbie tell the family you have an infectious disease Linda and Whiskas you can take alternate shifts Annie 'supposed to be' is the operative phrase Glen put your sign up (anywhere!) Jess, do you really need an excuse? Margaret, did you really think you could beat British grit???? Our parents sat through the blitz we can do this on our heads. Ang tell them that if you dont sit there all weekend then you may fail the open university degree you have been secretly completing to surprise them all. NOW JUST LETS HOPE IT HAPPENS, EH????

Got the Grandsons staying on 29th, so depends on how often I get woken up, I could possibly do some time during the night. Baby, if he wakes up, usually around 3.00 a.m. Linda
