Des.

Looks like the club has been moving along nicely in my absense, which is great. Will be back for October's meeting and looking forward to it, oops! better start practising. It's great to part of a really good club which is well organized and held 'loosely' to a strick regime by our 'Godfather' (on bass) Des. Hope those of you lucky enough to be going to Shadowmania have a great time. Will look forward to hearing all about it when you return. A big thank you to those of you who asked about my wearabouts over the last couple of months that I haven't been able to attend. See you in October.

We have missed you Eric so it'll be good to have you back in October.

Phil.
