Whoops...I MEANT TO SAY...this will be available early next week on Tuesday/Wednesday.

I was just too keen to post the message to proofread!

Hi folks - we've got a Christmas content present lined up for you. We originally had this planned for last month but there was a slight earthquake situation to attend to, so our November release has become a Xmas release. We're sorry for the delay, but we hope you have some time to enjoy a quiet search over the holiday period.

Hi folks, we're looking to make our next batch of papers available online in the middle of next week. It's a collaborative release so I may need to be sparing with details for now until we get our comms all checked off. BUT, that said, I can tell you it will contain a good number of issues of Lyttelton Times, among other titles, which should have some rather meaty passenger lists results available.
