Omnes,

Due to the recent struggles with MyPodcast, our own Molendinarius has moved his Latinum site to http://latinum.org.uk.  This change has been reflected in our links section as well.  Please check this out, it's a very useful site.

Remember, if you have something that you would like to share with the members here, please send me a message and you can be a "guest" poster.

Pax,

Matthew Paul-Frank Duran
