Yes-the first BAJR conference will be happening! Am looking at late 2006 and in the process of considering venues to offer to the subscribers for comment. My main concern at the moment is the distinct lack of input on BAJR from field archs/students. Whilst it is extremely good news that BAJR Baiting is now visited by archs of all/most flavours, I feel that we seem to have lost the plot. One critiscism from a unit Director and all of a sudden, the site is filled with happy-slappy picnic conversation.I for one could`nt give a rats arse for confectionary, grammar competitions and BAJR dating. British commercial archaeology has some pretty serious flaws. Lets get some work done.I welcome ALL to a serious dialogue aimed at setting in stone-a workable agenda for our first conference.Over to you.
