Special note to our readers:
Many thanks to all who filled in the survey. A few great suggestions have come in. Now we have to think about the “logistics” to put some of them into action. As we are allowed to keep the survey app running to a certain limit of entries we have decided to put the post up in our top menu. Perhaps the one or other of you still want to have their say. Be reminded that you may answer even just one question and then click the “Finish” button. That’s okay – we appreciate every single bit of input!
