Information for members re-delays, replacement Journals etc
Replacement and/or damaged copies of the Journal & Newsletter are now dealt with by the Membership Secretary and not the Librarian. The Membership Secretary’s address is printed inside the front cover of the Journal. Will members also note that the date shown for publication of each issue is the date that the Journal leaves the printers and not delivery date to members. Therefore please allow 14 days from the publication date before enquiring about non-receipt.
Fortunately difficulties of this nature are infrequent at present and our printers are always very keen to adhere to the agreed schedules. - Editor.

NOTICES
1) Please DO NOT USE the phone number of our late General Secretary. accidentally left in Journal 912 July/August (NB the name/postal address were correctly updated) General Secretary = Ted Buckley
2) Apologies that the contents update to this section for J913 was temporarilly suspended due to the vacancies in the Society Admin Team/other workload, this also led to delays in other updates across the site. As members will have noted from articles released within the November/December Newsletter, as these vacancies are currently ongoing this situation is likely to recur. (Added 14 November 2018).
