| sorry for the delay |
| For those of you who have been wondering or enquiring about our regular fortnightly bulletins, as you will see this is in fact only the second bulletin for 2009. Rest assured, you haven’t missed any. The delay has sadly been due to a key staff member requiring bereavement leave for much of this year following the passing of five friends, family or relatives. Understandably, these tragic events have impacted on the organisation so there have been some delays in various areas of operations. We trust you will understand and we thank you for your patience. |
