Introduction

A hearty (ha, ha) welcome to this blog which is a desperate attempt to overcome the problems being experienced with bulk emailing. In an attempt to defeat the scourge of spam my service provider has made it impossible to send an email to more than 5 or 6 addresses at the same time, which makes sending out a newsletter a real pain.

I plan to post agendas and minutes as soon as they become available, usually at least two weeks before the next meeting, but quite often much sooner. This will mean that all members will be able to access the info at their own convenience, and it will also serve as an archive of past minutes.

As this will mean an update only every two months I would like to expand the thing to include stuff which would be of general interest to members and so I’m making an appeal to all of you to email me (geoffs@telkomsa.net) anything you feel might be relevant, or even irrelevant. Useful articles, dietary information, problems with medication that other members might be able to help with, news and views would all be grist to the mill. When the Bypass Booklet project gets under way perhaps we can include some of that material for reference. Please feel free to make suggestions, and to let me know what you think about this means of communication. The Agenda for the next meeting follows:
