From the 1911 website page on 1939 (www.1911census.org.uk/1939.htm), the following: Initially, adult identity cards were brown, the same colour as children's cards, but in 1943 a blue card was introduced for adults.

I lost a toy monkey in the same incident from my pushchair, whether lost or stolen I don't know.

Those pesky Nazis had a lot to answer for...! lol  ;D

My 1939 Scottish national register entries have arrived! I ordered the record of my great grandmother and my great uncle. All I needed was a date of death to order them - see http://scottishancestry.blogspot.com/2010/01/1939-scottish-national-registers-my.html

Nothing I can write about on list.
I have been informed of some developments, but I am not at liberty to make them public.
Cheers

I never saw Heinrich Himmler playing with my monkey on newsreels. Remember "Himmler had something simmler etc.etc."

Has anyone on Roots, other than Guy, got further than the acknowledgement emails regarding a UK 1939 information request?

I made an application last week for details of residents at an address, amused me that they addressed me by my first name without my surname in their second email - friends already, LOL!
