Following Richards comments on his visitor numbers, I have finished my March Statistics, and yes, it was our busiest month ever at 1546 visitors over 18 days opening. This is 82 more thasn our previous highest month which was March last year. So the apparent trend continues. It is important (before we get too carried away with this number crunching) to remember that there are different numbers of opening days in each year for the comparable months. So while our total visits foir March this year were 82 bodies up, our daily average of visits actually dropped from 86 per day to 85.88 over the month! So beware - work on the figures long enough and they will confess to anything! Bruce Jackson Lancashire Record Office %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
