Once again your having a dig at West Coast so could I make a suggestion. Why don’t you arrange a meeting at 10A with David Smith, Patricia Marshal and.James Shuttleworth to show them how to run WCR, I feel sure they would give you a fair hearing...

I do it just to annoy you two who seem to think WCR can do no wrong. And to prove it why not swallow this one. Today's itinerary was good and it seems that despite the weather up north, we may have been operating under fire risk regs. That may...
