From a humble newsletter whose basic purpose was to inform our followers of forthcoming events, it has evolved into something much, much more. None of this would have been possible without our dedicated band of contributors whose writings you read in every issue, ably supported by those who have appeared only once or just a few times through our history. Thank you all, and here’s to our continued success together.

As you can tell from Ralph Edwards’ wonderful sketch on the cover this is our one hundredth edition, so before we go any further let’s give Ralph a big round of applause, ladies and gentlemen, not just for his skill, imagination, wit, but for his time too. Ralph's sketches have graced these pages before; those of you who have been with us from our earliest days will remember his musical recollections being serialised in this magazine long before we went on-line, when this esteemed tome was barely out of nappies, cheaply photocopied and stapled.
