Thank you to everyone who voted for me, I am very honoured to recieve this award and was totally unexpected as I am not very active on the IFAS boards although I keep a regular eye on topics relatIng to Aurorae. In relation to the Club in Galway, yes we are a strong club with a very busy schedule and as with every other year around this time I am swamped in organising our up coming Starparty which being our 10th (and the 15th anniversary since our club formation) intend to make it the best yet including a special evening dedicated in honour of the late and great Parick Moore.


Thank you again
