over the PVNV - although it's taking a good percentage of the population to do the<br />
job that Heather Bland did single-handed. The new ed itor Dot and her back-up Ros<br />
live here, plus linda Hoyle, one of our many recent arrivals, w ho has volu nteered for<br />
the new post of Distribution Manager.<br />

was posted to Wytch Farm by BP, and seem to have brought Grampian winters With<br />
them ... as well as their son Jonathan.<br />
