Quote: " Dr Burrows...began compiling information for the Flora as long ago as 1951..." " Unfortunately she died before she was able to undertake the meticulous checking of the draft and it was then left to the Flora Committee of the British Phycological Society to arrange the posthumous preparation of the text..."

"Bunny" edit

Known to her friends as "Bunny" on account of her surname. My Mum - Mrs Linda Irvine - knew her well. IceDragon64 (talk) 14:49, 6 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
