I have had a new email from Future Learn inviting me to complete the survey - this time it worked!

Really looking forward to this course - thanks for the heads up. Great to see so many references to RootsChat  in the discussion thread. We seem to be gaining new members!

Did you report the fact it wasn't working? Is so where/to who did you report it please?

No I did not report it - just went into my emails earlier this evening and there was a new email from them and this time the link worked. Perhaps its on its way.

As the course doesn't start until March, they probably weren't expecting 2,000 people to be stamping a path to their door this early on in the proceedings!   ;D

In all seriousness I've signed up for the Agincourt one as well, just to get a taste for it. Always liked my history....

Stuart, I did the Agincourt one recently, it was fascinating.  I can also recommend England in the Time  of Richard III, and Hadrian's Wall. All three are great courses and totally fascinating.  (I always liked my history too....) ;D

Tempting though it is to sign up for about 6, I do have a full time job unfortunately. However it does appear that they repeat them more than once, so all is not lost :)

I'd definitely recommend the England in the Time of Richard III - that has been my favourite course so far. The Agincourt one was also good though.
