I think it's RMSA, but I could be wrong.

Now in my personal capacity
Miriam, Nigel and everyone else
I am almost convinced that the information about RMSOA has been in the SoA
Newsletter. I am 99% convinced that it has been covered at a London Region
meeting, presumably via a report on the business of Council or the relevant
sub-committee.
As people seem to be in feisty form at the moment, could I join in with the
I hope not too controversial comment that information such as this is or
should be made available at regional meetings of the Society, and it
behoves
all of us who are members to attempt to attend these meetings to get this
information. At least occasionally. And certainly to actually read the
regional mailings. And if not, not to say 'why wasn't I told?' too often.
These are not meant to be personal comments re Miriam and Nigel of course.
I declare an interest as I used to be a Regional Secretary, but I think
London colleagues will agree that meetings can also be fun.
We have been here before on the list, so I'll shut up now.
