BCA'37 eNotices #20

Welcome to our 20th Newsletter.

Dear Readers

We hope that you all had happy, and relaxing holidays.

There have not been any events over the last month or so, but this month we do have a new exhibition coming up in Manchester, and the folk duo Na-Mara have gigs coming up. We also have a very good article by a Durham undergraduate student, Isabella Brown, which is well worth reading. More about all these items below.

Although it may appear quiet on the events front, Simon and I are kept busy by a stream of requests for information about family members — we are even finding out about "new" niños. Also in the pipeline are school visits and possible new exhibition tours. We will keep you informed and hope that you will keep us informed of any relevant events either in UK or elsewhere.

We hope that you enjoy this eNotices, and please continue to give us feedback, ideas questions or even letters you might want us to use (subject to editorial approval).

With best wishes to you all

Bienvenido a nuestro 20º Boletín.

Queridos lectores

Esperamos que todos hayan tenido unas vacaciones felices y relajantes.

No ha habido ningún evento durante el último mes, pero este mes tenemos una nueva exhibición en Manchester y próximos conciertos del dúo folclórico Na-Mara. También tenemos un artículo muy bueno de una estudiante de pregrado de Durham, Isabella Brown, que merece la pena leer. A continuación hablaremos más sobre todos estos eventos .

Aunque el tema de los eventos parezca estar tranquilo, Simon y yo estamos ocupados con un sin fin de solicitudes de información sobre miembros de familia, incluso estamos conociendo 'nuevos' niños. También estamos programando visitas escolares y posibles nuevos itinerarios para nuestra exposición. Os mantendremos informados y esperamos que igualmente vosotros nos informéis sobre cualquier evento relevante en el Reino Unido o en cualquier otro lugar.

Esperamos que disfrutéis de estos boletines y, por favor, continuad enviándonos sus comentarios, preguntas sobre ideas o incluso cartas que queréis que utilicemos (sujeto a su respectiva aprobación editorial, claro).

Con mis mejores deseos para todos.
