The Life of Me


Here's another one.

There I am, searching for that long lost, elusive relative, when suddenly I hear the news that I have been waiting for all these years, well, if you are a penny pincher like me, the 1861 Census is now available on-line!

My heart raced, I kicked the wife off the computer (well I waited patiently all day until she was finished) and searched for the census which would help me.

What did I find, apart from disappoinment, you need to subscribe. OK, not too bad, I can fill out a form, NO you need to SUBSCRIBE.......MONEY YOU FOOL.

Well that's where my interest in my long lost, elusive relative faded.

Bloody capitalists!!!
