Second RPSL Morocco Day

Dear All
 
This is to give you notice well in advance of our second Morocco Day to be held at the Royal Philatelic Society London (same venue as last time) on Saturday 19 March 2011.
 
I had hoped that the third GBOS Morocco book would be launched at this event but that has not proved to be possible.  Never mind.
 
I expect the programme to be much the same as our highly successful first Morocco Day in 2009, but any suggestions are most welcome.
 
I hope very much that you will all be able to attend, and I will be in touch in due course regarding displays. 
 
Best regards
 
David Stotter
 
Morocco Agencies Research Coordinator
