    The 0800 404 9723 one just gives silence, then a tine after 17-18
    seconds.

    Thanks. Yes, I found that number (somehow, I forget how; _not_ from
    Leif), and called it - as it said, not until 12 (I suppose I should be
    grateful it was manned on Sunday at all).

    I wanted to ask about my renewal, which was going to be twice what I
    paid last year (give or take some pennies). The best they could do was
    25%, so I'll be taking a break from them for a while - until their next
    offer, maybe not even then. (I prefer FindMyPast anyway, only using
    Ancestry for things only they have.)
