Free access to overseas British BMD indexes

Sometimes muggins here misses things! For some time I have known that the overseas British BMD records for 1761-1981 have been available on the FindmyPast.com subscription site, but I have just discovered that they can be accessed completely free of charge at FamilyRelatives.com (www.familyrelatives.com), including links to view the original register images for each entry.
