I am really happy that we are talking about using the skills available to us in the best way; that we are co-operating with one another; and that we are acknowledging people's good will and commitment. We need a lot of different skills and everyone is busy but it seems that now, not only are we doing the above things, we also have more talented people helping across our big country than before. Thanks Craig, John, Graham, Kerry, Steve, Charles and Ross.
