I've already written to Brian and had a response which I posted yesterday -
roughly
summarised it was 'We've been through this several times - sorry people lost
money but Keiths a good bloke and wer're going to carry on using his pictures'
I'd suggest that maybe posting letters to a singe E-mail address and then
forwarding
them on bulk to Graham Newby and Brian Hope is the best way forward - that
way, we would know how many had been sent so there would be no way that Graham
Newby could use the same arguement as he did last time that they had only
had complaints from 2 or 3 people when we all know that quite a large number of
people had written to him. Is this something that the Europa club could
organise?
If not, I'm happy to set up a Hotmail address we could use.
Re the trust fund (Trust / Keith Wilson - very funny!) - at say 5% interest, the
amount he would have to put in there to generate any serious money would be
astronomic - 1/2 a million would still only give 25k a year - if taking pictures
pays that well, I'm off to Dixons!
