   Hello Everyone,
           Fisher  is  back home again, now.  My thanks to Robert Houston
   for  letting  you  know  of  the  change in plans because of the heart
   attack. Fisher also developed pneumonia whilst he was in the hospital,
   and it is something I shall have to be very careful of, as he is still
   bedridden  for  the most part. Thank you to everyone who sent messages
   of support.
           I'm  not  too  sure  just  when  I  will  be able to start the
   proposed  Auto  Rummages,  but  I  will let you know just as soon as I
   can.   As  you  might  imagine, I am kept quite busy, so please accept
   this as a personal note to everyone who planned to attend.
           A long-time friend of Fisher's has been trying to help, whilst
   I've been at the hospital, and to this end he has suggested an auction
   of some of the cars, and I have added his message to the foot of this,
   for any of you who might be interested.
