Thanks to all the the guys that were able to get through to Ladysmith for the breakfast on Saturday, it was really a pleasure to have all you guys here. I really hope that you guys enjoyed it here with us. It is a pity that the weather was not in our favor, which prevented a lot of planes not been able to come through. This is something that we would like to host more often as we feel that Ladysmith is nice and central for most of you to come through to, and there is accommodation at the airport for those who want to make a weekend out of it. If you are in favor of this been done maybe twice a year or so please place your comments on the forum.

Thank you

Shane
