Dear all

The leaves are falling and the rain is settling in, but the rat race is still on for all of us with no sign of hibernation starting anytime soon!

First of all, apologies from the committee for not having quite managed to pull out our 'seasonal events' this autumn, weather and time resources did not allow us to organise the now popular mushroom foray nor did the sparse sloe harvest let any hope for a fruity tipple at a later stage this winter.
