We are well under way with digging ourselves out of the hole in which we were dumped by the hard drive failure. I still hope that Paul Vella and one of his band of Merry Men will be able to fix it or at least drag some if not all of the data from it. When the hard drive that Steve Jones has so generously donated arrives we shall be able to finish our back-ups. In the meantime, the most important bits of the video archives - the Emily movie and the Guyana, Mongolia and Gambia footage - have been backed up onto other drives and other computers; and the picture library is in the process of being backed up online.
I am just under half way through reconstituting Andy Roberts's book, Naomi (bless her) has finished the first proof on Richard's Japanese book, and Lizzy (bless her) has finished Nick Molloy's, and is just starting work on Carl Portman's.
So we are running late, but just about holding our own.
