Yep, to spend your working life, thoroughly enjoying what you were doing - and then even getting paid for it.  Wouldnt that have been great. 

Nowadays couldnt keep up the pressure of time limits.

So love just researching at my own speed.

I have 2 ladies who work for us now who were recruited through this forum!

I remember seeing your request for new staff on not that long ago - although it could have been a few months, time goes so fast when you're having fun.  ::)

Have I got it wrong - I understood that the lady from the Government said that estates stayed on the Bona Vacantia list until they were solved or for 12 years. However, in this series of Heir Hunters they have talked about hunts that they went back to after several years. Today's programme reopened a case that was started 20 years ago, and because of the new resources available they were able to find heirs. If there are only 12 years to claim, how does this happen?
