Post script.
Chris, despite arriving at NETWORK at the top of the age bracket, you have put a lot into
the group, and we are pleased that you wish to carry on in the supportive role, when
very soon it is time for you to move on. Thank you for your hard work and support to
date and we look forward to your continued input.
