    It's not the fault of Findmypast - it's because so many people were accessing the internet to watch the footie.

    Every other site that she tried was fine, just findmypast was being slow and not loading.

    We had the same problem, only managed to access about 15 originals in the whole 3hrs! Most of the time was spent pressing the refresh button when the page failed to load! Would recommend figuring out which person you want the originals census images from before the free time starts! Come on England :)
