Jillian I beg your forgiveness for not giving you credit for the news letter as well as Dave. For my punishment I will wear a hair shirt and flagellate myself with a barbed whip for one week. Mea Culpa,Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa.

Thanks guys, glad you received it and liked it! I hasten to add though, that Jillian did all the hard work, thank you Jillian! My "editor's job" is much easier but I wasn't the only one to help in crossing the t's and dotting the i's, thanks to the rest of the team too for their help. We'll post it in full in the thread some time tomorrow in case some members didn't receive it. Cheers, Dave

Hello folks! One little mistake got through the net. The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Concert in Guernsey is of course on Sunday 27 May 2012, and the event was confirmed by Hayley's management a few minutes after Dave sent out the email. Richard
