    3. Thanks for this. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend the day as I now live elsewhere and my next scheduled visit to Newport isn't until the end of May. I guess the museum exhibition might still be on...However, having followed the link, I was horrified to read the first line "As speculation mounts that Newport's landmark Chartist mural may be demolished.." What!!!!!!! I know this isn't strictly a geneaological matter but it's outrageous. The mural could admittedly do with being somewhere other than in a gloomy tunnel, but getting rid of it is terrible. Is this really a possibility and who should I complain to about it? Is there a petition? Does anyone know? TTFN Joss
