heads up - informative Scottish conference online right now
Sue Visser
Hi all
Yesterday I was getting ready to watch a webinar about Scottish Wills when
I discovered there was a Scottish conference happening right then. I
started watching and it was excellent and had to make the choice so didn’t see
the other webinar. What is so great now is that you too can watch the
whole presentation online – but just for a very short time!
If like us, your Thanksgiving (in Canada!) is without your family
physically with you, here’s something to help chase the blues away.
Happy (different) Thanksgiving, Sue Visser
