Following Else's post about the impending Friday closure at the LMA, a further reduction in services for visitors to London record offices is the withdrawal this week of the one hour copy service for wills at the Principal Probate Registry at First Avenue House, High Holborn. They say this is 'until further notice' but they have also redesigned their application form and the only two options are now to collect in five working days or to receive copies by post, which can take about three weeks. (This postal service is not to be confused with the one operated from Leeds which, I understand, also takes quite a long time these days.) Diana Bouglas
