We're beginning to slip into hibernation mode, events-wise, though there are still a few get-togethers worth taking into consideration...
- Friday 25th November - Catalogue Day at The National Archives, London (still time to register if you're very quick);
- Saturday 26th November - Pub History Society Conference/Workshop, London (again, still time to register);
- Sunday 27th November - Northampton Book Fair;
- Sunday 27th November - Performing Arts Book Fair, London;
- Postcard Fairs at Porchester (26th), Powick (26th), Bloomsbury (27th), Stockport (29th), Digbeth (30th) - see here (please check with organisers before travelling).
The Guild of One-Name Studies has issued a Newsflash, which includes brief details of its 2012 Conference (among other things).
From Ireland: details of the Ulster History & Genealogy Summer School (June 2012) + the latest Eneclann newsletter with its county focus on Galway and seasonal focus on Christmas.
The National Archives seem likely to be closed on Wednesday 30th November as a result of industrial action - see here. And it'll not be the only institution closed on the day in question - please remember to check before you travel on 30th, wherever you plan to go.

TNA have also posted a short article on the subject of the Suffragettes (and related records) - see here.
The Family Recorder blog gives us a short-but-sweet insight into the mysteries of the genealogical cruise.

MEDIA NEWS
WDYTYA? Magazine's website has revealed the result of its 'favourite episode' survey from the recent TV series.
And I'm just a wee bit too late with this one: the BBC's Heir Hunters TV show has gone prime time. But don't worry, as I'm sure you'll be able to pick it up on the BBC iPlayer.
