Peter: For those with numbers and no unread emails, check there are not some on further pages! They may be very old ones! Good point!

Keith Saunders: Let me add my congratulations to Leon, it was nice to see the actual presentation, it would be nice to have a picture each month to keep the focus on it through the following month to encourage new Gold Members Done - thanks for reminding me Keith! If you look at the bottom of the current Prize Draw page, you will see we created a section
