Thank you savethepandas. It's too late for the weekly email but we've just retweeted their tweet about it: Findmypast so it's worth a Best Buy Bear badge for spotting that

I received this too. Sadly I'll miss the live discussion/chat.

It is worth mentioning some public libraries have acquired Findmypast, but don't list it unlike Ancestry. Mine listed it on their blog, but stated you had to ask to be logged in by staff.
