Wondering why Jeremy Lines has been missing from discussion groups for some time? I got an email from him saying he was nose-to-the-grindstone for the last 5 years working with a team making a digital copy of the Lloyds registry from 1878 to 1980! The project is finally complete.
You can read more about the project, and the product, here:

Well done Jeremy!
