Hello @jan :)
@AmericanLuke Hi, I was just up in the laundry room.
@AmericanLuke I'm winding up the last couple of days of a monthly subscription to Find My Past. I'm reviewing my research history on the British Newspaper Archive (which I did on PPV).
I downloaded the pages and took notes back then, but that information is on my lost hard drive. So I'm retracing my steps and trying to re-download the newspaper pages I looked at back in 2013.
I've been so busy, I haven't done anything genealogy related in what seems ages (in reality, about a week)
I have a list of bookmarked pages, a list of viewed pages, and some saved searches. So now I have to figure out which search terms made those pages come up. The Tolkien and Austen hits are sort of obvious, as are the coronation articles and the accounts of Nelson's funeral. But the family history stories aren't as easy to spot on the page.
Sounds like plenty of work. How long is your list?
Viewed articles are 3 pages of entries at 20 per page, I think.
Some of them I've re-found already. Don't know if I'll revisit all the Titanic articles or not.
But I need to find a new system of keeping track of viewed articles as I go. Depending on the vendors' list of viewed articles is cumbersome.
If I can manage a page a day, I should be able to come in under the wire.
Really need to learn Outwit.

But I can use Scrapbook for the moment.
Ah! British Newspaper Archive lets me edit notes on the articles -- I just can't see them unless I pay again, because my PPV credits have expired. So if I find the article again via Find My Past, I can leave myself a note that it has been viewed and downloaded again.
AFK for a moment, while I rescue my laundry. Back shortly.
23:24
... and I'm back.
The unfortunate thing about the BNA is that they give the newspaper title and date in the "My Research" list but not the page number.
