Hi, Spry et al.: Spry, all this sounds excellent. Sounds like it's going to be a great event! I can tell anyone who is contemplating attending the conference that judging by the success of the 2000 and 2002 U.S. conferences, the 2004 U.S. conference will be an event not to be missed! All the best Chris

Hi Stephen, It does indeed look good - especially the mystery dinner theater. Dave

I like the look of the English-themed dinner, actually. If y'all don't have brown sauce on the table I will want my money back. Regards Timsta PS No, A1 does *not* count. Strictly HP or Daddies.

Hi, Timsta: Actually knowing the special and innovative entertainment that takes place at UK and US Ripper conferences alike, don't be surprised if something special is planned for the HP and Daddies sauce. As shown on the front of the Parlours' The Jack the Ripper Whitechapel Murders written with Kevin O'Donnell, as plotted on a map the murder sites make an arrow pointing directly at the Houses of Parliament, so HP sauce is most appropriate doncha know. The killer is not called Saucy Jack for nuthin' tha knows. All the best Chris George
