<\/a>Hello chaps,<\/p>\n

It’s been a trial to update the Bar in recent days because of problems with the host’s domain name server, so I couldn’t update at home or indeed check my mail, except for a brief period last night. Fingers crossed it will all be sorted for Action Saturday tomorrow.<\/p>\n
