Sorry Victoria. When the decoder was first put on the net it was brilliant. Then you could find a single person and with a couple of clicks of the mouse you could find everyone that was at home on that night. You could even move along the street just as if you where going from door to door and finding out who was in each house in that street. BUT NO MORE. The GRO realised that they had made things to easy for us, very rich genealogists. And they were going to lose money, so they loused it up for us all so now you pay for all the hits you make. They really are very nice people you know. Sorry about that chin up. Cheers Ernestxx
