It is interesting to speculate why that should be - maybe so they only have to make one lot of cucumber sandwiches? Well, let us wait and see how their presentation together complements each other.Paul Barfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443302899233809948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174756573570334952.post-82202237375924124782008-11-02T02:47:00.000-08:002008-11-02T02:47:00.000-08:00While I have got you online Dan, is there any word...While I have got you online Dan, is there any word on the date the results of the 2008 PAS review will be made public? I wrote to Kate Clark politely enquiring, but my query was merely met with a long silence. I suspect its not just me that is waiting with bated breath to learn the verdict.Paul Barfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443302899233809948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174756573570334952.post-85494073268403112352008-11-02T02:38:00.000-08:002008-11-02T02:38:00.000-08:00So who do I have to speak nicely to to get on your...So who do I have to speak nicely to to get on your mailing list? :>)Paul Barfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443302899233809948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174756573570334952.post-18041428284470300702008-11-02T02:06:00.000-08:002008-11-02T02:06:00.000-08:00Thanks Paul.

It is a massive work, costing £5.70 to post!! It will be online as soon as it is launched.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully I will have all cases before and after the end of this report online by April.<BR/>DanDaniel Petthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15354813793679242645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174756573570334952.post-63329207260319560932008-11-02T01:53:00.000-07:002008-11-02T01:53:00.000-07:00That is good to hear, but does that mean that the ...That is good to hear, but does that mean that the 2005 and 2006 ones came out but were not signalled by your website? The last one listed there is the 2004 one which is the last I have. If the next two are already are available, where can we get copies please? <BR/><BR/>It will be interesting to see the Treasure cases appearing on the database alongside the others, it will give us all a clearer picture of the whole range of what current policies on artefact hunting and collecting at least in England and Wales are producing. <BR/><BR/>I wish you the best of luck with your Herculean struggles with the PAS database, I can imagine a little what is involved, and look forward to seeing the results of your labours behind the scenes. Good luck.Paul Barfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443302899233809948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174756573570334952.post-77902093605437772802008-11-02T01:18:00.000-07:002008-11-02T01:18:00.000-07:00Paul,The 2007 report will be out shortly.

I'm currently rebuilding our databases so that the Treasure Act system comes online as well, we have no funding or help to do this and it is extremely complex. (And yes it will be simple to use.)<BR/>DanDaniel Petthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15354813793679242645noreply@blogger.com
