My sincere appologies for the late start on this - I'm afraid we got called away to help some friends in an emergency - which over ran a bit on time - but ...
We're back at YDC time again - they say time flies when you're having fun - which I hope everyone is. Last month was another great success with a lot of auctions and even more bidding. I hope that we can have another successful YDC this month.
