And who was I?
This a.m. was obliged to be up and about earlier than my usual wont in order to be a Meedja Nexpert Hedjog being filmed in converse over some historical manuscript and ephemera items.
And I think this went fairly well (The Famous Shirt is surely capable of conducting that conversation all on its own without me inside it) but one can really only tell if/when the programme finally appears with my few seconds of FAME or not.
But anyway, after my piece was said, and I was on my way out, somebody else who was next in line for filming came in and we were introduced and they said we had previous acquaintance -
- which, quite possible -
- but then they said, concerning some manuscript pertaining to some topic which is Not My Area, so I put this down to either:
a) actually handing them the ms in the Reading Room and possibly helping them out with some minor matter of palaeography, back in the day.
b) it was one of the other archivists, all archivists look alike.
c) or it was Noted Expert on the Topic in Question, who is, I would say at least a generation senior to myself, but all us grey-haired old dames look alike?
d) some other theory? This entry was originally posted at https://oursin.dreamwidth.org/2895458.html. Please comment there using OpenID. View
