To say that "some" of the pages are so feint they are almost impossible to
read is an understatement!

I purchased this CD set (which also arrived promptly) and was very
disappointed with the images of the census pages, a large number of which
appear to be very over-exposed, so rendering the information unreadable (I
checked parishes that I had already been able to read fairly easily on the
microfilmed versions available at either Norwich Record Office or the
Norfolk Studies Library).

I emailed Stepping Stones about 10 days ago with regard to details of how to
return the CDs and obtain a refund, but have yet to receive a reply!

Cheers,
Adrian Hennessy
