Editorial
Hello again, and welcome to issue 25. Thanks for all the letters and emails I've received
as a result of my comments last month, and in particular to those who have made
suggestions for improving the viability of running auctions. I had intended publishing a
few of your letters in this issue, but have decided against it as I think there is a risk of
'over-doing' the auction thing; as it turns out, there wasn't enough room anyway.
Suffice to say, there does appear to be a genuine demand for Jeremy and me to continue
to run these events, so I haven't totally ruled out an auction in November. Whether
there is enough demand remains to be seen. I've asked for your views on the following
page, so please read carefully, as I need to receive sufficient response before
committing to an event in November.
Many thanks to John Peterson, Robert Rowland and Johnny Burley, who have all
contributed articles this month, and have between them almost filled the magazine. The
result being, I have had to write very little this time - more of it please! I know I keep
banging-on about contributions from readers, but at this time of year (my busiest), there
really is a limit to how much time I can commit to writing for the magazine.
Well, that's just about all for now. You should all receive this issue toward the end of
the month, a little later than usual, and the next should be out at the end of July. I've
done this, as I have the last two years, in order to close the gap between the July and
September issues (remember, there's no magazine in August).
So, until next time
All the best
Jerry
