Note that the South Wales Winter Congress is on 8th-10th January 2010. The entry form link above is out of date. Please use this link instead

Note that Ian would prefer telephone entries over email - broadband and IT are not his thing!

I'm scheduled to be the controller - but I have nothing to do with entries.
