Blushing

Robbie Rix just can't take any compliments

Readers seem to have responded to my expressions of concern last week, when I reported that our May fighting fund was lagging behind somewhat - no less that £505 has come our way over the last seven days, taking our running total to £1,115.

That’s better! We are now within striking distance of our £1,750 target, with 10 days still to go to raise the extra £635 we need and make it two successful months in a row.

I was delighted when I opened the post and saw a handsome cheque for £100 from comrade RG, plus a more modest, but still welcome, £20 from comrade ST. Then there were two PayPal donations - thank you, KN (£20) and MD (£5) - and a nice bunch of standing orders that totalled £345.

Let me end by quoting ST’s note accompanying his cheque: “Another great issue! First prize goes to Mike Macnair, with a great double page from Michael Roberts and Yassamine Mather.” You’re making them all blush, comrade!
