Well, my copy has arrived - and jolly interesting it looks too. The author has agreed that I can produce an online index for it so that will now fill my computer time as an enforced break from the ongoing work of extracting trade directories onto the Genuki pages. But this message is really a disguised seasonal rallying call for my (our?) book indexing project :-) Have a look and see whether your hoped for Xmas present book will fit in. After all, there can't be many opportunites left to join that very select band of Dyfed and Glamorgan lists book indexers ! http://home.clara.net/tirbach/hicks1a.html#Indexing Apart from the above book the other ongoing items that I am aware of are; <Mike Doyle is doing The History of Clydach <Pat Powell is doing The History of the Methodists in CMN <Laura Pryse is doing The People of the Covenant:The History of Galilee Baptist Church, Llangwm (1830-1988) Gareth List administrator for DYFED, CGN & PEM Genuki Wales http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/ Lookup Exchange http://home.clara.net/tirbach/lookup.html Help Page http://home.clara.net/tirbach/hicks.html . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gareth" <[email protected]> To: "Dyfed" <[email protected]> Cc: "CGN" <[email protected]>; "PEM" <[email protected]>; "Glam" <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, December 06, 2003 7:09 PM Subject: 'The Cambrian' Bi-Centeneray book - cross posting > Further to my original message (below), this new book is now available and > here are the up to date purchase details. > Don't forget that proceeds are going to charity. > > Postal ordering with sterling cheques or similar made payable to 'MIND in > Dacorum' should be sent to;- > > Glynden Trollope > Orchard Cottage Shenstone Hill Berkhamsted Herts HP4 2PA > (01442) 863754 > > Or by sending VISA etc details and expiry date by e-mail or if preferred by > phone to Glynden's local and reliable independent bookshop which is not > charging any commission for this service or on sales. > They have already transacted with NZ and USA in this way if sterling cheques > are not available. > <[email protected]> (01442) 864559 > > Glynden can usually arrange delivery post free in Swansea, Neath, Llanelly > and > Llandilo areas; Ealing S & E Bucks and W.
