Things, it seems, are gradually getting back to normal.

Since Christmas I've given face-to-face talks to, amongst others, Ackworth Heritage Group; Harlow Hill Men's Forum; Craven U3A; Leeds Probus and Shadwell Country Womens' Association.

I still have a few Zoom bookings left over from more restricted times, Carmarthenshire 50 have been steadily working their way through my entire repatoire, but it does seem that a measure of normality is now returning, long may it continue.

I certainly haven't been without bookings throughout the Covid years and Model Villages, The Story of the English Canals, The Discovery of the Tomb of Tutankhamun and Crime and Punishment continue to top the charts.

Between now and the end of June I have over 20  talks booked, all but 3 of them will be in-person and I'm pleased to welcome some new groups including the Probus Club of Worksop; Aireborough Civic Society; the Beverley National Women’s Register, the Marston Moor YCA Group and the Worsbrough Wifes group.

I look forward to meeting them all and making some new friends.

Thank you to all the groups who have contiued to support me despite the troubled times we've been through.

Oh and I've got a brand new screen, slightly bigger than my old one so my presentations should be even better.
