If you want it editing so the joins don't show, you know where I am...
Angela B:
Hi Christine,
Your message had me searching Sue's bottle for joins that show! :huh: sorry!
It occurs to me that maybe a lot of people like yourself have a special interest in Mdina glass and a topic within that broad subject that they would like to contribute to the proposed article. For example, somebody might want to tell us about the time they visited Mdina and talked to Michael Harris (or somebody else there). Somebody might be an expert on the history of Malta and write a short background piece about that history. Somebody who worked at Mdina Glass might tell us what it was like working there (wouldn't that be great). Somebody else might specialise in Mdina paperweights and want to add that to our article. And so on, these are just examples. If you have a special interest in Mdina, or some really good photographs, please tell us.
I have never worked with a team bigger than one collaborator before, when writing articles for the Glass Museum. This will be an interesting experiment.
Angela

Lustrousstone's a professional copy editor, a personal friend, and also interested in Mdina, Angela!
But oh dear, Angela some of the things/pipe dreams you're mentioning, (eg folk who have talked to Michael Harris at the time, or finding somebody who worked there at the time and getting their perspective) would be fabulous to find, but lots of folk have been trying to track down such "rocking-horse droppings" - to use Ron's turn of phrase, for years, without success.
I'm not sure if I know of anybody who has specialised in paperweights. I have a few (probably quite a lot, actually) but only really by accident....... :spls:
More than likely enough though.

All I can contribute is that I have a great aunt that was married in Malta in the early 20th century to a member of His/Her Majesty's Navy. ::)
