Hmmm! The bona fides may depend on when they went there. The classics
school at Cambridge has declined somewhat in recent years. (Saith the
classics snob. . .)
Alisoun, who technically read history at Cambridge but went to most of the
classics lectures as well and had A. H. M. Jones as her special subject
tutor
(And who wishes she had thought of setting up a Latin translation shop to
cover her Society expenses --- haven't done that since I used to translate
honoris causa diplomas for Columbia and Rutgers back in the 1970's. . .)

I have used them a couple of times and always received my translation within
24 hours. Here is their background information:
*Quintus was educated to doctorate level at the University of Cambridge and
taught Latin Prose and Verse Composition at the University before taking on
the leadership of the Classics department of one of England's most
prestigious independent boarding schools. His broadcasts include talks on
'Virgil' and 'Caligula'. * *Quintilla was educated at the **University*
* of **Oxford** and has acted as the Latin language consultant for a number
of television documentaries.*
