Absolutely serious, Gary. Liza was selling glimpses of her Tabram photo at £1 a time for club funds, but I was lucky enough to see it at leisure as Liza's room mate.
I assume Liza wants to get in contact with Neal because of her amazing find. Does anyone have an email address for him?
Love,

Hello Monty,
Yes, there is only one place for big 'Ripper' bashes and that is the East End. If conferences are going to be held in places that have a 'Ripper' connection irrespective how minute, what about here in Thorpe-le-Soken where Gull grew up and is buried? Yes I know it is ridiculous. I am sure there must be somewhere in East London that would welcome us all in the late Autumn when hotel trade is waning.

Just to let you know. One of our delegates, Mick Warboys - (Oliver Hardy), suffered a serious fall on the way home from the conference at London Bridge Station. Luckily, Adam Wood was with him and made sure he got the correct medical help that resulted in a trip to the near by St, Thomas's hospital. He is alright now, but very sore .
Well done Adam.
By the way. At 10pm (GMT) tonight, Jeremy Beadle will be conducting a Ripper programme on London's L.B.C. Radio station. They do broadcast via the net: http://www.lbc.co.uk/listenonline.asp (10pm UK time)
In answer to Chris T. George's question, an official video will be available in time. Watch this space.

Thanks ADRIAN,
I listened to all three hours of the Beadle programme last night. His quests were Paul Begg, Paul Feldman, Andy Aliffe and Christopher DiGrazia. Entertaining show, great guests! I do think that Beadle should have limited the number of calls and let the guests get into more of a round table discussion.
I was surprised to hear Feldman say that all of Kelly's organs were accounted for by the police. No missing heart. In fact he thinks Maybrick used Kelly's heart to write the FM(?) on the wall!
Take care,
Kevin |

Hi Kevin
Maybe Mr Feldman believes that blood is thicker than watercolour.

Hi Caz
Wait a second, you were kidding about the picture of Tabram at a pound a glimpse or were you serious?
If the latter I take back my flippant remark.
I'll buy it outright, even if my wife will leave me. (Just Kidding)
All The Best

Hi, Gary:
Indeed, Gary, Caz was deadly serious when she told you that Liza Hopkinson was selling looks at the photograph of Martha Tabram for one pound sterling each. The opportunity for a "look" was a fundraiser for the Cloak and Dagger Club, for whom Liza was simultaneously selling raffle tickets for the same purpose. Mind you, I got a "free" peek at the portrait exchange for buying £10.00 of the raffle tickets. 
I do have to say, however, presuming the provenance is good and it is Tabram, that it was very hard to relate the photograph of the young Tabram with the photograph of her as a victim, although we did not have the latter to hand to check for facial landmarks that might have helped confirm any similarities between faces in the two photographs. That is, with the Tabram pictures, it did not appear to be as clearcut as with the wedding photograph of Annie Chapman found by Neal Shelden compared with Annie's morgue photograph, to tell that it is the same woman in both pictures.
Best regards

Water colour!!
The good Policeman in the sky has spoken:
'Art thou the one who wroted the diarnal (cross between diary/journal) please come forward.'
A prize of a bowlful of 'Golden Grahams' awaits the first claimant.

Hi Andy,
What is this problem you have deciding what to call the scrapbook? The words 'diary' and 'journal' come from the same word 'day', and if you look them up in the dictionary, you can choose which definition better suits your own idea of the jottings.
Love,
Caz

Hi Caz
Yes and similarly I have difficulty deciding whether the Diary is a forgery or a hoax, so let's call it a foaxery, since it has taken in so many foax.
All the best

Hi Chris,
Nice one.
I trust you took full advantage of being in the presence of Anne Graham and Albert Johnson last weekend to ask them what they know about the origins of the foaxery and how they have the front to mingle with the very foax you believe they have tried to take in.
Love,
Caz

Hi, Caz:
Nope I did not take advantage of the golden opportunity to speak to Anne Graham. She was asked by Jeremy Beadle on the floor of the convention if she had forged the Diary and she said "No." It sounds as if Keith Skinner and you are convinced of the lady's honesty, so as Melvin Harris said, that's good enough for me. . . until the whole truth comes out, that is, and we find out the full, real story behind the Diary, which as you and your co-authors have admitted was not the intent of your book to find out.
All the best

Hi Chris,
By saying that Anne's "no" and Keith's endorsement of her honesty is "good enough for me," are you now suggesting that you buy the whole "it's been in my family for ages" tale?
Or has Anne's story changed since I last came by here?
Just wanting to get caught up,

Hi, John:
I am of course being facetious. Anne's story has not changed, although as we know the story she tells does not match the original story that Mike Barrett got the Diary from Tony Devereaux. I just think that the invitations to me from Keith Skinner and Caz to meet Albert Johnson at the 2001 Bournemouth convention, which I did do, and Anne Graham at the Liverpool convention were both a bit strange because even if those two individuals are as honest as the day is long, both watch and diary are questionable artifacts and there is no tangible evidence otherwise to show that Maybrick may have been the Ripper. John, I hope this helps clarify things and bring you out of your Maybrickian fog. 
All the best

Thanks, Chris.
I thought so. But I just wanted to be sure.
I'll rest easier now, knowing that you know better. 
All the best,

I spent most of the conference Banquet and 'booze up' afterwards with Anne Graham, and found her to be a down to earth and very honest person, she was also extremely good company.
I realise this proves nothing about the 'diary' but just thought it was worth saying! |
