NADFAS 2013: STOP PRESS!

Thank you to all who organized and attended this year's NADFAS Directory Meeting at Westminster Hall.

Many of you have taken my card with the web-site address...and  now...You're HERE!

To find my Talk Titles, go to 'What I do(click above) which takes you to Talks.  For my Study Days I recommend an extended version of any single talk title OR two seaparate talks, typically giving us two morning sessions with a longer afternoon handling session where members bring items along.

a delightful surprise ... I loved your descriptions – who needs HD TV with
such rich and layered accounts. I shall certainly listen out for future
episodes...
