I think we should be there with leaflets and difficult questions. We cannot let them have an easy ride - let's put this in the diary!

Hi Justin

Great minds.... I've just included this in the events section AND the calendar.

So just a gentle reminder - can everyone start using the calendar routinely, so that all forthcoming events are in one place for easy access. I think this is particularly important as the membership of the forum is growing rapidly, and all the topics are beginning to sprawl rather. It can be quite difficult to trawl through everything and find relevant details.

Regards

Annie
