EDITOR’S NOTE
This edition of the College Record is somewhat overdue for which I apologise. It covers the activities of the College up to the end of summer 2004. In future I hope to produce the Record at the end of each calendar year and the Newsletter in the middle of the year. The Record will include formal reports. The Newsletter will concentrate more on social events and Alumni matters. We plan to distribute both publications to all past and present members of the College and look forward to receiving material for inclusion in both of them.
