Ann
It will be a long wait!
I was meaning to write to say thank you for the maps you have sent in
the past and to ask whether you may have more for disposal? At the
Digimap tile allocation meeting you mentioned taht the Mil Survey had
extra copies which you had asked them to put in the Aberdeen box. As we
do not have a box it might be easiest if you had duplicate items sent
to Edinburgh and on to Aberdeen, and we then paid you for the
transport. Do you think that weould be possible? At the moment I can
have money for map chests but not for maps or for conservation.
Best wishes,
Graham
