Email from Dr Ian Roberts

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

At least the link works, FWIW. However the linked-to page says 2015 and might deter some people. I#ll drop a note to Grand Fromage...

Great job - thanks for the effort to organise it, to go there and do it on CA's behalf.
