Sorry about the hold up on the DVD's. I have a box of them here to send out. Mr Gruitt had his mum pack them up and send them to me as he has gone off adventuring to Brazil on a Clipper!

Quite a few found homes at the Lymington event, but I'll get my arse in gear and send out some more this week!

I'd personally go for option D, "John needs a really time consuming job on the committee next year. Preferably one with no public thanks but frequent public complaints."

There are a few errors in your post here... You have a full qwerty keyboard on a computer so there is no need to txt speak.

Now Will's name begins with a capital W, Coz is not a word I assume you meant to say 'because', an ATM is a Automated Teller Machine (cash machine) again I assume you meant to write 'at the moment'.

I'm not being nasty but it really irritates me when people 'txt speak' on internet forums, Lots of people struggle to understand it (I’m only 21 and it gets me confused at times), not only that but we often have older people viewing our forum and those from abroad, now for many of these people English is a second or third language and they possibly do not even speak English but use an online translator. It must be near on impossible for lots of these people who we would like to welcome to use our forum to understand the message we are trying to get across if it is not in plain, clear and simple language.
Rant over,but think before you post next time...please. ;)
