Dear Ian,

On behalf of the Trustees I am writing to thank you all at Club Arnage for the very generous donation that you have made to the Motorsport Safety Fund. I was very happy to accept your - literally large - cheque for £1,200 at the Watkins lecture on Friday. The presentation photograph has now been posted on the Fund’s website - http://www.motorsportsafetyfund.com

I hope that you enjoyed the lecture, which seemed to keep the audience entertained and amused !

With my best wishes

Ian
