Spam!

Unfortunately our website seems to have been found by one or more 'spam-bots' and as a result all the email addresses that were published on this website are now receiving a lot of un-wanted Spam emails.  I have therefore been forced to allocate new email addresses to all the committee members so that the genuine emails have a chance of getting through.  Therefore if you had any of the old addresses saved in your email client please check the Who's Who page for the new addresses.  I have changed the way email addresses are displayed on the website to make it harder for the 'spam-bots' to extract them - hopefully this will not affect any genuine users from using the website.
