Hi All,

I assume the editor who is giving up is the one who thought that living in 
Thurso was an easy commute to London. For our foreign members Thurso is 
almost the most northerly point of the British Isles.

With regards to the reprints of LBSC articles I did say to an editor of the 
magazine a long time ago ( I gave up buying it 10 years back) that they 
would have done far better just  reprinting old articles than some of the 
junk they were publishing at the time.
