On behalf of the Lancashire Local History Federation, I maintain a list of speakers . Message me if you want to see it - send me your email address. Don't expect a quick response as I am away for a week

Hasten away, that as a member is your right,
It is not your right as a member to spam the site or condone some Newby that spams the site then goes on to assume that the silver surfers that he is hoping to bulk up his audience are dumb.
He may be a very nice and interesting man, we don't know and so far he has done little to prove he is.
He has been advised to introduce himself (all new members are asked to do this).
He was told he had spammed the site, this he denied.
Until he proves otherwise he comes across as an arrogant self server.
It isn't up to you to defend him, it is up to him to prove his first post incorrect.
Will he do that?
I doubt it, in fact I doubt he will want to give to the site even as much as he hoped to take away, I hope he proves me wrong, is this the moment someone comes on and tells me not to hold my breath?
