Membership continues to grow steadily and is now heading for the 850 mark. On April 27th we held a meeting for New Members who have joined since 1 October 2008. Unfortunately this was not well attended.
I should like to remind members that the subscription for next year is due on September 1st, renewal forms will be sent out in August. Prompt renewal would be appreciated, if possible before the AGM on September 25th as this will help to spread the workload over a busy period.
