I'd love to go to this and ask a few questions about opening hours but unfortunately I'm busy all day.

Hope it's a good event though.

Unfortunately, I can't attend either as I will be off to work soon for all day shift.  I thought I would let others know about it though as it does look like an interesting event.
Yes, on subject of opening hours I think it is a shame that the archives couldn't open on a Saturday at least once a month as this would be more user friendly to people who work week days.

Best wishes for the Preston Cemetery War Graves tour which you are leading today. :)
