Last year I was getting them back in about 10 days. This year I've only ordered two and both took over 20 days.

Wonderful... its one I really want to get as the wife is a mystery woman, not helped in tracking her down by illegible handwriting on any certs from Ireland for her kids births. Dublin South registrar in the late 1910s had EXTREMELY tiny curly writing.

At least I know its likely not lost anyway.

About 10 days for me too last year but I paid about £3 extra to get it by email about 4 days earlier because I couldn't wait to get started on the next part of my tree.
