What exactly does it say, Falkyrn?

At the moment I can search, but not view the results.  Does registering make any difference???  there don't seem to be any instructions for tomorrow on site.

kind regards, Arranroots

The article simply refers to the fact that access will be free during the time period mentioned as part commemoration of St Andrews Day and first birthday of the site itself. ... I've also had a look at the site today which doesn't add any further information .... I can only assume that during the time period given the searches will allow full access to the articles

Thanks I will set my alarm for midday, St Andrews

Thank you for posting this, I would have missed it otherwise. I wanted to search the War casualties lists a while back but lack of funds prevented me from subscribing so this is brilliant.

Currently the Scotsman site is overloaded - "come back later".

Can everyone else just log off please & give me a shot??

Tis very slow, so think I'll try it tomorrow while the Brits are sleeping.

Hi there. Following your helpful directions re The scotman free access to archives week, I have registered, but can't find any 'free' option on any subscription page. Are you able to help, please?  :-\Nordmann
