A polite reminder and request
Thank you to everyone who has been submitting records online this year (2010). Please keep them coming in.
Over the last few weeks some recorders have been putting in incorrect grid references or only part of a Kent postcode. Please could I kindly ask all online recorders to make sure their grid references are correct and that if you use a postcode you enter the full code and not just the first part (e.g ME16)
Also some new recorders have been making up their own online recorders ID before requesting one. Please could I kindly ask you do not enter any records online until you have received your recorders ID, as if there is any problems with your record(s) and we cannot contact you, they will not be included.
Thank you for your co-operation
