Introduction
Firstly a big welcome and thank you to new subscribers. I try to keep intro messages short but there’s quite a lot going on with changes in government so hopefully, during the usually quiet summer months we might have more going on. As always, I welcome and comments, suggestions and feedback.
Have a good week!
