Just a line to say how much I have enjoyed the company of you all over the year.

I think it was you sarge who opined that the internet sometimes has a good use, club Imperial being just one.

I still am in wonderment at the fact I can enjoy decent intercourse with people I have never met across thousands of miles of ocean like they were living next door, long may this be the case.

To all the members here standing I wish you all nothing but the best for the coming year and hopefully some better health.

So Prost, Cheers, Skol,L'Chaim to one and all.
