I meant to say "count me in" but my fingers and my brain didn't coordinate.
Anyway, Henry, do you have any preference? Those who like to join please send me a personal email from here so I can arrange a meeting location and time.
Cheers, ZiQing

ziqing, Henry,
Wish you have a successful and enjoyable workshop, in the heights of West Coast summer. Wish I was there. Enjoy your Yum Cha as well.
PS: ziqing, show Henry your books you published, as I am sure they are of great interest to him as well.
Regards, Ah Gin

Henry,
We are now well into August, and still waiting to read of your account of the genealogy workshop in Vancouver. Let's hear also of your meeting with our many members in that best known of Canadian city, the hub of our pioneering forebears( if I may include my own grandfather in that number.) C'mon Henry, don't keep us waiting any longer !
Douglas
