Hi Allan you only have to register once and as you live in Oz you can log on the day of the match from 9am UK time (6 pm here in Tassie ) till 9am UK time the next day ... but ONLY for the 90 minutes time slot if you log out before the 90 mins you loose that time ... Its still a very good offer though

So in effect they've halved the free time they are giving us, only 90 minutes instead of 3 hours.
Though the 90 minutes are now spread over 24 hours.

I do hope that spreading the demand will speed the site up or some of us might just getting a passing glimpse of a record, if last week's 'slower than treacle' speed returns.

Hi Wilma,

I think that spreading the offer over a full 24 hours will mean that 90 minutes might be enough time as fewer people will be logging at the same time, thereby speeding up searches.

However, choosing the right 90 minute slot is likely to be a bit of a gamble :lol:

As someone said on another site, if you log on in the wrong 90 mins - tough. :?

I'm just doing my 'homework' and listing everybody and everything vaguely 'English' or military on my trees.

Then hoping for some peace and quiet to get searching [but the kids are due home so that's a vain hope]

As it's a beautiful day I'd hoped they'd all go outside and give me peace :)

They did....

...But every ten minutes one or more of the 4 coming crashing in to ask/tell/complain/find -
so the lang deid yins will have to wait until the live and kicking ones are in bed ... :-({|=
