[email protected] Welcome to the Autumn 2007 News Sheet I am delighted to be able to tell you that, for the first VAUGHAN FLEMING time since we started the News Sheet in its present form in Spring 2002, there have been more contributions submitted than I have actually been able to accommodate in this issue. Unlike with some of our more professional sister publications, however, this does not mean that those omitted will be ignored or forgotten: they will certainly be used in a later issue. In other words, please keep your contributions coming in! Also, once again, if there is anything special that you would like to read about in future issues, please do let me know.
