I'm being particularly dyslexic over the last few weeks, it will pass and get less, but I'm being even more stupid than normal and a few things are looking like Chinese characters to me Simple things, I'm trying to trace two WAAF girls and my brain won't compute something as simple as a BMD reference ACW1 Mabel Jones 445052, died 10th February 1942, aged 23, buried Aberdare ACW1 Barbara Norraine Richards 2068762, died 30th September 1945, aged 25, buried Treverbyn Could some kind soul look tyemmup on the GRO index for me as I'm proving incapable Thanks Jon

What, no robotic assistance as here advised by the BDA? - just scroll down to "Examples of reasonable adjustments" to where the 4th bullet point under its 1st sub-heading ("Reading") suggests "Supply screen-reading software or a Reading Pen". Having a machine read text out loud while you're viewing it should shatter dyslexic delusion just as a friend might do by reading over your shoulder - and, I might add, with infinitely more patience . I found the technology abysmal for cramming books &c, but it should suffice for quickies like citations. I also recommend FreeBDM, in this context, with its exceptionally-well-designed internal search engine maybe right up Jon's particular street. Steve
