Today has been "a day" ... had four annoyed patients in succession ... (only one had an actual point). Luckily the docs and nurses were lovely today and patient with me as the other admin went home sick. I may hug the couch for a bit though to recover!

I had a new message at Ancestry notification email this morning, I've been stuck in work and can't check it; it's really bugging me!!
Does anyone else have the same lack of patience as me?!

Between 1861 and 2022, three people were prosecuted in England and Wales for getting an abortion. Since 2022, at least seven people have been prosecuted. We need to decriminalise abortion properly.

Petition: Decriminalise Abortion
I am calling on the UK government to remove abortion from criminal law so that no pregnant person can be criminalised for procuring their own abortion.

From the high hopes that I can treat myself to some new tech that may or may not have been influenced by @miagen.bsky.social during the #EscapeToThePast weekend (hosted by @fiona-memories.bsky.social and Mia) .... to the depressing low that is an email from HMRC with my tax bill.

Researching a Jones line in my tree. Twin sisters marry 2 brothers, & another sis marries a different Jones family.
This is to rest from my paternal Roberts line that marries into a maternal Roberts line that is related to my maternal Davies line....
Are you confused yet?
I love 🏴 research.

Also, I'm looking to connect with more Aus / NZ based genies now I'm down this end of the globe. Any suggestions or recommendations gratefully received; I feel a bit like I've lost part of my tribe that I can confer with in real time (esp. when I'm stuck / annoyed!)
