17!!!.....did you take out a bank loan....or win the lottery

I actually ordered more than 50 certs when I heard about the price increase.  Luckily, my father is investing in the genealogical pursuit!

I've had my 30 plus certs I ordered for a few weeks now as I got them all from Local Register Offices & not the GRO.

As they came before the price increase the new leads allowed me to order further certs still at £7.00.

As well as the 50+ that I ordered from the GRO, I ordered a stack from the Kendal Register Office--which arrived in less than a week (and I live in the US!)

I have just watched a news item on TV and it was about airmail post having to be sent by train to Spain so it can then be flown out to the USA.

Presumably this will apply to other Countries that post from UK goes by plane
as well.

Three of mine ordered 28 March - estimated dispatch date of 6 April - arrived 17 April. No complaints about that really.
