I've been told it is a private event so it seems that neither of us will be able to attend. Sorry.

Could you please tell me the time for the lecture at the Fan Museum on 6th April about Cook and William Parker? I've been to Hawaii and Whitby and am going to Canada and am most interested to know more. Many thanks, Kate
