I'm looking forward to this meeting, I won't be a regular due to distance but it fits in with travelling to visit family members.

Really interested in the vet talk, and of course meeting everyone

Lynne Stokes is a great speaker, I had the pleasure of hearing her last year at the BCG symposium in Milton Keynes...

I seem to remember another great talk from someone whose name escapes me for the moment
