I would have really liked to come to this day and prepared to travel 200 miles to hear the speakers lined up to take part .Unfortunately I cannot attend due to a pre-booked holiday.

Is there anyway their talks could be recorded and made available on the website? I am sure there are many other members who may be in a similar position who would appreciate it.

Thank you in hope.

Hello Litchick

Thank you for your reply. Yes, we record the talks and post them on our YouTube channel. You can see the previous years talks here: youtube.com/channel/UCO7_bZ...

It usually takes us a couple of weeks to get the videos edited and uploaded but they will definitely be posted.

Hope you have a lovely holiday!

Best wishes

Anna
