Aw, I'm sorry you've been tired. Did you get to look at the 1921 census with the genealogy-stuff? (I had some fun with it! I found my four grandparents - their first census, they were all very small! I was worried it might be too expensive this time, but I think it hadn't even gone up from the 1911 costs, which was great.)
I have been tired/ill too quite a bit these last few weeks, but I'm hoping I'll be a little better soon. I find that lately when that happens I stop coping with my Dreamwidth flist, which is newish and strange, but seems to be a thing! (I think it's because things are generally so much less fannish around here than they used to be, maybe.)
Daisy really does love that bed. It's become her favourite.
Hiya. I haven't looked at the 1921 census yet because it's not available on Ancestry. Yet. Maybe soon.
You remember Teresa my possible half-sister? One of our shared matches is a 4th cousin for me but is a 3rd cousin for Teresa so I'm tracing their tree to see if I can get anywhere.
I hope you feel better soon. It sucks to be this ill.

Oh, cool! A clue! Good luck. *crosses things for you*
I'm afraid the 1921 census won't be on Ancestry for several years yet. But it will fold back into FindMyPast's main collections in a year or two and once that happens, there's always free trials or a monthly sub or something as options. (It's a massive project, so it's done this way to recoup the cost - once the cost is covered, then it folds into the regular collections. The exclusive rights to it (after doing the work of not only scanning and transcribing and indexing but also restoring and cleaning the physical records for TNA) take longer to go - I'm not sure. But it won't be anywhere else till after that. The 1901 and 1911 were done in the same way; the 1911 by Find My Past, and the 1901 by Qinetiq, who severely underestimated what they were taking on!)

=(It's a massive project, so it's done this way to recoup the cost - once the cost is covered, then it folds into the regular collections.=
Yeah, I can understand why they've done it, I just can't afford to look up half my relatives on there and there's nothing I'm desperate to have, so I'll wait until a monthly sub will give me access and check it out then.
