Re: IOMFHS - latest journal
In Response To: Re: IOMFHS - latest journal ()

I live in B.C., Canada and did not receive my August journal until just 2 days ago! The IOM postmark was the 9 September, meaning it took almost 6 weeks to arrive. (My subscription allows for "Surface" mailing only, however, 6 weeks is a bit much). I had allowed for the problems arising with the September 11th USA tragedy, with respect to postal delivery initially, and then began to make enquiries. I attempted to email the society (as did another member on my behalf), but the emails were rejected. One day after posting a handwritten letter to David Christian, Treasurer, my journal arrived! A delay in receiving my journal occurred one other time - I don't know who to blame - the postal service on the IOM or the authorities here in Canada?
