Iain, for a moment I thought you meant you needed software for a fiche reader! That site sounds like a very good idea --- especially when you remember that lots of (large?) public libraries have fiche readers which people can use for nothing. Where did you get your "British Genealogical Fiche"?

However it reminded me of the first Computer I bought sounds daft but nobody told me you neede Software to run it ! Being a bit older I am aware of the need to obtain Fiche but where from we bought a book "British Genealogical Fiche" We went to a fair at York but it is all a bit cloak and dagger . We now have the English Class list for the 1891 Census and are ordering the Scottish 1891 list. I have tried to obtain a copy of the Sutherland Estate Papers Fiche but L.D.S. will not sell same ( I have arranged for it to be at our Local? F.H.S. but it is 30 miles away) Has anybody any ideas ? Like a breath out of the blue I find that there may be help at hand A new site www.uk-schools.org/ficheex/ficheexchange.htm which is being set up NO coverage for SCOTLAND yet but hopefully.
