Publishing magazines like this can play havoc
with your perception of time. Last month, in ear-
ly November for the December edition, we were
wishing you a Merry Christmas - as were many
of our advertisers and contributors.
Now, in early December, we are already think-
ing about 2016 in an edition of the magazine
that should reach you before Christmas!
The 20mph survey published in December is
still open until December 27th so please re-
member to take the chance to express your
opinion. Please note that the address for the
survey was incorrect - the correct one is on the
front cover this month!
As this issue should reach you before Xmas
we’d like to again wish you all a very Merry
Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New
Year! See you all in 2016!
Please remember to visit the website. There are
often articles there that we could not fit into the
print edition, as well as information that arrives
during the month. The address is:
