6 more sleeps until the NLI Santa arrives :D

Santa doesn't visit if you don't sleep, I wouldn't want to jinks it.

With 390,000 images I'm wondering how many records it will contain given the population it has to cover over time..... can't sleep for wondering!  :-))

Rootschat etc will be mad busy with people trying to figure out handwriting etc.... thank goodness one can get 2 pairs of specs for the price of one!!

I'm just hoping that I will be able to find a few older records that RootsIreland.ie has missed.

It won't be fun trying to make sense of the records, until I viewed some old Irish transcripts, I never knew that my bad hand-writing was an Irish trait!
Galway: Treacy, Egan, Boland, Flynn, Cahill
Cork: Hurley, Barrett
Donegal: Kelly, Diver

Maybe they'll decide to save money and cancel them, then send the money to our needy EU neighbours in Greece??

heheheee...

Now this may be a silly question after all the excitement and waiting.... Fingers and toes are crossed for tomorrow.

Does anyone know how access to the NLI RC records will be made available? I haven't found a "watch this space" for a link yet  :-\

thank you Hallmark, I've known the date for sometime.

Its a link to where the parish records are going to be posted as I'm uncertain whether its directly on the NLI website or elsewhere.
