10 'free' credits for ScotlandsPeople site
« on: Tuesday 30 September 08 12:36 BST (UK) »
Hello to you,

Not sure if this has been posted here recently, but I've just got 10 free credits for the SP site, by registering my interest in the following website:-

www.ancestralscotland.com

Registration is free, and there are no commitments etc.,  just register for their quarterly newsletter. Once registered they'll send you a credit code to input on the SP site and voila! ;)

Cheers
McVitie

The link is the correct one. However, there is no connection at present for some reason.

SP themselves promote the site www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/content/help/index.aspx?r=546&975
