No problems for me.
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Fine with me too.

Gmail doesn't seem to like Firefox for some reason.

Thanks -I wonder why it has suddenly decided that it doesn't like Firefox after working well for years??

Can't answer that one but I changed my browser to Firefox once and gmail did not like it so I had to change back to chrome.

I wondered if it was something to do with a windows 10 update? Windows 10 seems to prefer Chrome.

Almost certainly it's to do with Google trying to get you to use their browser, so getting hold of all your internet activity.

It makes you more saleable.
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.

Probably a setting in Firefox needs changing, I just signed in to gmail with no trouble on Firefox 70 so I don't think we can blame Google . . . well, not for this  ;)
