Subject: A Bug in the System (now fumigated)

Through this list over the past couple of months, we have corresponded
with people from all over the world, people who are looking for
information about family members who lived in areas such as Zululand and
Durban and whose papers are probably in the Archive in Pietermaritzburg.
We told them that we would be going to the Garden Show in PMB and would
also be spending time at the Archives. Well, on Friday, loaded with
print-outs of all the information sent to us, note books, pencils,
spectacles, money for toll roads and parking fines etc we travelled
through to Maritzburg only to find that the Archive was closed - the
premises were being fumigated.

Elizabeth in Tasmania, Otto in Norway, Alec in the UK, Jerry (residence
unknown) and Betty from Randburg whose request we picked up on Friday
a.m. - please accept our apologies. We don't know when we'll be back
there again but it will be during the next few weeks. We'll phone
beforehand to make sure thay are not closed for redecorating/xmas party
or whatever.
