Seminar - 27th January 2008 (Postponed to end of Feb)

Notes:

Due to unexpected problems we had to move the venue and postpone this event to the end of February.

We had a venue arranged at Fairview wine farm for Sunday the 27th but were notified on the 18th that they could no longer accommodate us. The short notice made it impossible to rearrange for the same date.
