Blackwell bookshop announced on 20 June 2008 that it is to install an "Espresso Book Machine" that will allow customers to print out fully-bound books in just seven minutes. The self-service machine, which will eventually be installed in 50 stores across the UK, offers a choice of around one million titles. A smaller and more sophisticated version of the machine prints books in just three minutes. The older version has already been installed worldwide in 11 sites and Blackwell hopes to eventually have the faster machine most of its stores. High street bookshops can offer a range of books that will compete for the first time with online stores such as Amazon - will we be able to obtain our genealogy books (even obscure ones) in local shops? Will they be less expensive?

Great Interview. I enjoyed it immensely and Lindel's homely sense of humour. Well done, Lindel. Pam (South Australia).

Dear Jack, Could you tell me please if Lindel's radio debut can be picked up in Adelaide, Australia, and at what time?

Thanks Dave, I messed up with the time - forgetting we are on BST now rather than GMT. All very confusing but I think you have made it clear to all. Boyd Gray http://familytrees.genopro.com/boydgray26/Boyd/default.htm -----Original Message----- From: donegaleire-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:donegaleire-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Dave Mitchell Sent: 23 June 2008 15:02 To: DONEGALEIRE@rootsweb.com; irl-co-donegal@rootsweb.com Cc: Seamus Doherty, Derry Subject: [DONEGALEIRE] To get the 2nd Session for Lindel Buckle's interviewon Donegal's Highland Radio Dear Listers For those who missed Lindel's interview earlier today (like me!), don't fret - the programme is being re-broadcast tonight. SNIP

Dear Listers For those who missed Lindel's interview earlier today (like me!), don't fret - the programme is being re-broadcast tonight. I have been in touch with Ciara Mackey, the producer of the Shaun Doherty Show at Highland Radio, who has kindly explained as follows: a.. The show went out earlier today at 10:00 local Irish time - it's a 3 hour programme. The interview with Lindel was broadcast at about 12:30. In other words, about 2½ hours into a 3 hour programme. b.. Ciara says it's actually about two hours into the show - but that's before the Radio Station adds in all the advertisements and commercial breaks. c.. Ireland are now on summer time, i.e. GMT + 1. d.. The re-broadcast will go out at 01:00 Ireland time, which is Midnight GMT. e.. So, if we allow 2½ hours, that means Lindel's interview should be on at about 02:30 GMT For my part, I'm going to tune in at 02:00 GMT and get in the mood ..!! (All thanks to Boyd Gray for alerting us to this special treat, and to Lindel for doing the interview - and of course to Highland Radio) The website link is Highland Radio's streaming Live Stream: http://www.highlandradio.com/streaming.php It works like a dream Enjoy!

Hi Folks, It's obviously all action week in Donegal because, second only to Lindel's visit, another fascinating international event is taking place. It is the XVII Ulster American Heritage Symposium, based this year in the Ulster American Folk Park, just across the border in County Tyrone, and featuring visits to Ramelton and Rathmullan in Donegal. It has all the top genealogists and Ulster American historians and some of the topics seem fascinating. The web address with all the details is here: http://www.qub.ac.uk/cms/events/UAHS_2008.htm If you are already in Ireland, you will not want to miss this. (Especially Eva, from Cali, who IS in Ireland but whose email is resisiting all my blandishments - however, I know she gets the Lists. This is from the top page (just in case you're wondering should you fire up IE): "'Changing perspectives, 1607-2007' Centre for Migration Studies at the Ulster American Folk Park, Omagh, Northern Ireland 25-28 June, 2008 The Centre for Migration Studies at the Ulster American Folk Park, Omagh, is pleased to host the Seventeenth Ulster-American Heritage Symposium, 25-28 June, 2008, in partnership with the University of Ulster, Queen's University Belfast, the National Museums, the Library Service of Northern Ireland and the Ulster Historical Foundation. Since 1976 the Ulster-American Heritage Symposium has met every two years, alternating between co-sponsoring universities and museums in Ulster and North America. Its purpose is to encourage scholarly study and public awareness of the historical connections between Ulster and North America including what is commonly called the Scotch-Irish or Ulster-Scots heritage. The Symposium has as its general theme the process of transatlantic emigration and settlement, and links between England, Scotland, Ireland and North America. Its approach is multi-disciplinary, encouraging dialogue between those working in different fields including history, language, literature, geography, archaeology, anthropology, religion, folklife and music. The particular theme of the meeting in 2008 will be 'Changing Perspectives, 1607-2007' with the aim of presenting and exploring recent research that challenges habitual ways of thinking about the historical relationship between Ulster and North America over the last four hundred years. The keynote speaker will be Professor David Cannadine, Director of the Institute of Historical Research in the University of London and author of Mellon: An American Life (2006). As at the last Symposium in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2006, there will be an excursion on offer on Wednesday 25 June. Our plan is to visit Ramelton and Rathmullan in County Donegal."

Hi Boyd, Just to add The Shaun Doherty Show runs from just after the 10AM news until 1PM GMT(weekdays), so Lindel's slot on Monday 23rd will be approximately two thirds of the way into the programme. To the best of my knowledge the Monday show will be repeated from 1AM, Tuesday 24th June (GMT). However, the repeat is shorter as news breaks and advertisements are omitted. Also I think in some instances parts of the show may be cut making it very hard to gauge exactly what time Lindel will be on. Bernie

Please can you find out if I can listen later as I will be in work at that time.
