I am having difficulty viewing the beta version of bmd's on Ancestry. The page is taking an absolute age to load. I could literally make a cup of tea in the time it is taking. Anyone else having this problem? Jean x.

Hi It was really slow yesterday - think it is just popular! Happy hunting! Allie

I'd love to hunt Allie but the pages are taking so long to load I am losing the will to live. Jean x.

Try emptying your temporary internet files and reducing the days in your history. Many browsers are sluggish because they have too much 'ballast' associated with them. Cheers, Horatia

MR NELSON!!! ;-) Avast there me hearty! I am HORATIA not HORATIO. ;-) Nelson had a daughter called Horatia! If it isn't your browser perhaps some server in your area of the internet has gone down and this may be why it is slow for you. Cheers, Horatia Nelson

No problem with the images. Loaded fine. I've never had slowness with Ancestry - now 1837 online is another matter entirely!! Cheers, Horatia
