Hello Michele, There hasn't been a meeting for about three months now and I rather miss them. I believe it's to do with work commitments at Linx. We are very lucky as a group in that we have been able to use the excellent Linx boardroom and facilities. We could of course meet anywhere - and indeed, in the past we have - but Linx is ideal. So I for one am hoping that we can to meet again there soon. I wonder if anyone else has any info or ideas.
