When Fergus Christie was discussing the CfS project with the ECF, did he have the full knowledge and backing of Holloid? Was his subsequent departure from the company in any way connected with the project and did that departure affect Holloid's commitment to or interest in it?

Today (15th) is the day (RGWs funeral now takes up the 16th)!

CEO, Chris Majer together with ECF Legal Adviser, David Anderton, are visiting the premises of Holloid Plastics, Basingstoke hopefully to obtain answers to searching questions. :wink:

I wish them the best of luck on their mission! :D

If you have any messages of support, perhaps you could post them here.

Please note that the ECF Office will be closed from 24 December to 4 January inclusive
.

I guess we now have to hope that Chris Majer will post on here personally for the latest on his visit.

However I can only suspect it is bad news, else it would presumably have been up on the main ECF website by now otherwise.
