January 2012 update

Though I have not updated the blog recently, I have not been ignoring the Oxus saga. I am in regular contact with one of Pam's daughters and many of the original illustrations still exist. I have also been contacted by the son of "Bridget" who was mentioned in the Ransome introduction to The Far Distant Oxua. I am still hopeful that I can find the time to write a full article for offering to one of the newspaper supplements - it's such a good story that needs telling.
