Duty Officers please by PCW

Hi folks, yes we are still very short of members standing up and doing their share of D.O. Please look at the calendar and choose one or two days for this important (and sociable) job.

Elsie was doing a great job ringing around and "encouraging" people to sign up, but as she's no longer with us, would you just imagine she has rung you up, and in her friendly no-nonsense way got you to agree to put your name down???  Good, thank you.


Big plans for next working week

It is clear that we need to think "out of the box" or "into the cave" next time. What use is lots of limestone if you can't build in it? See here for our inspiration. Thanks to Gareth Jones for the info.
