Sorry to about the possible demise of Pete Groh. Sadly, none of us can escap=
e =E2=80=98the end=E2=80=99 whenever it=E2=80=99s to be. As I said yesterday=
, Don Hiscock has kindly offered to unofficially import the keys when in the=
UK next month. Looks as though we still need someone to put their hand up t=
o do the custodial bit on the longer term. I could of course chuck them out h=
ere to save Don and others the aggro but thought to offer them here first. T=
hanks to any who may have reposted my email of yesterday on to others for th=
eir information.
