I didn't know this suppliers' page existed, but I do get a bit out of touch
here in the Cotswolds. Continuing on a personal note, as one of the small
suppliers who can just manage a list in the MA Yearbook; I have asked the
CBA to update our listing on their suppliers' page for several years now.
Our 'phone contact is the same but the postal address and e-mail are totally
different. The trouble with many listings sites is that they are created
dilligently and then never updated. A GEM list which could be quickly
ammended would be helpful to all. While many of the suppliers listed in
"Call to Arms" are excellent chaps it is still a puplication mainly targeted
at re-enacters. I don't have a listing there myself to limit the number of
enquiries I get from SCA members who want 7th century Icelandic Viking
wedding dresses.

There is the list of resources and suppliers page on the ABC of Working with
Schools which I am happy to add to.

We seem to be seeing quite a few requests for contact details of companies
providing different services.  Would GEM consider hosting a list on the
website - not replicating the information on the Museums Association site
(but linking to it)? If we had the main educational suppliers and
replica/model makers that people use, that would be a start.  It should be
possible to use the archives of this discussion list (available to all of us
on the web) to see which requests are most frequent and what the answers
have been, so might not take  too long to get a list together?
