Not surprisingly there were no new subscribers this week, although several current subscribers did check that they were still 'on' the list once the 'list2' server came back up. As always, if you haven't already contributed, we hope to hear from you soon. ****** ****** ****** Digest Subscribers with bigpond.com (and associated Aussie ISP's), may need to check the archives, as due to their ISP's problems (coming on top of the RootsWeb ones) Bute Digest V03 #135 bounced for some of you. The following link takes you to monthly indexes of the list mail archives - an alternative to searching the full archive, if for example, you've been off on holiday for just a few weeks, or you have missed a single digest. http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/ButeshireGenWeb/ Minor issue (for me) is the requirement to scroll to the bottom for the current month :-( The address to use to search the full archive is :- http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl Enter the name of the list - in this case ButeshireGenWeb, then follow the prompts at the next screen, you will have to choose a year if you do not want the default (current) year. Note however that due to the problems this week, this archive has not yet been updated. Thus, for example, last Sunday's Musing's #218 is not listed yet, but it is shown in the October 2003 index. {With the recent problems at both RootsWeb and Bigpond, issue #218 may have arrived in subscriber's mail boxes any day this last week, but is correctly dated in the monthly archive at 12 October.} ****** ****** ****** Feel free to join in and present your own items.
