Personalities are not confined to Presidents and the like! We would like to run profiles of new members so that all members get a chance to learn more about them. This is particularly important given the change in membership procedures. Previously the application procedure ensured that you were known to many members by the time you became a member, now you could join knowing no one! So we would welcome profiles from any new members.

Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey. With 60% wanting every week and 40% wanting less often, it would seem we cannot please everyone all of the time, but in fact we can. Or rather you can! It's in your hands
