BwB Journal October 2022

The BwB Journal 2022 – October Edition 

This is the second edition of the BwB Journal.  It is likely that the Journal will continue to be a six-monthly publication, providing there are sufficient articles to publish in each edition.

My thanks go to all who have contributed articles so far.  Not all have been published yet, as the editorial aim is to cover a mix of topics from different people in each edition and avoid duplication.  It is likely your article will be published in a later edition.

In this edition eight articles appear.  Again no common theme emerges through all of them.  This time the focus moves generally away from Europe.  Click on the title below to go to the article, or use the side tool-bar.

I wish you all a safe and fruitful bagging half-year, whether it be autumn or spring where you are.
