Editorial
I try to get a balance of topics to address the full range of member’s interests. This year the pages are well filled, though the archaeologists could pick up their pens and write more. Also I would like a supply of little bits to fill the odd quarter or half page, so can I encourage you to send a haiku or a joke or a photo which might suit the magazine?

Overall, I am pleased that the material came along without too much chivvying, which is because there is a continuing interest in doing things in the outdoors and writing about it. Long may it continue!

Ken Butler
