Northumberland & Durham FHS
« on: Thursday 06 March 08 17:27 GMT (UK) »
Is anyone out there a member? I sent an e-mail a month ago to their shop with an enquiry about a publication in their catalogue but got no response.
I'd be interested in any views on this FHS.
Regards

I am a member of this FHS and have been disappointed by a non-reply to an email. In my case I was intending to give something to the society so I wasn't too bothered!

However I have visited the FHS research centre in Newcastle which is staffed by the usual enthusiastic volunteers so I think we have to be forgiving if their admin fails occasionally.
