A-A Message Board
The message board was transferred to ‘Yahoo!’ from the previous format at the end of November and we are delighted to say that the response has been excellent. We hear from as far afield as Holland and America and find it so useful to exchange experiences from such a variety of sources but we would like to receive messages from more of you. Remember that you don't need to simply reply to the existing messages but can introduce a new topic at any time, and you're certain to receive a reply. We look forward to hearing from you!
