A first today - my #Elections2024 Polling Station is at the local pub ππΊ. Makes a change from a draughty church hall and a definite step forward in the democratic process !

Every Metropolitan Police officer used to be issued with a form ( Form 29 ?), carried at all times in the pocketbook and to be used when dealing with injured horses - might still have mine, but I'm not sure anyone ever actually used one ! #Police Metropolitan Police Museum & Crime Museum

Remember the day very well - I was on foot patrol in #EarlsCourt and was told about the shooting by a #London #Cabby ( they always new what was happening before anyone else)

There was a very good reason why the Metropolitan Police provided accommodation to #police officers (for more than a century), same reason there were numerous nurses homes and even the fire brigade had housing across #London . BBC News (UK)

#CivilRegistration
My lovely neighbour has proudly shown me their #familytree #pedigree drawn up in the #70s and going back to 1369. Asked me to check it over and it looks like it is the wrong line from about 1807 back ... #Awkward #Genealogy
So good to be talking to people at a #FamilyHistoryShow #facetoface again - met a few potential AGRA Genealogy joiners and had some interesting questions on the #1939Regiser , #BrickWalls #CivilRegistration records and even a birth in early #C19th #Mauritius
