Our thanks go to Tony Chuter for the excellent work he put into processing close on 300 slides in the CRC Formulae, to send one to each CRC member, so each may have an `original` sample of the quality we can expect. They arrived too late to be in the N/L but the article has been run-up on the duplicator and enclosed as an `extra`, with the slide attached, We hope that you will be encouraged to try the formula, be it your first go at W&M, or getting back to it after having given up after previous disappointments.

As you will read, I have now corrected the processing problem that troubled me. It would have been easy to have given up, but I was determined to make amends, which I have done, with the help of other CRC members.

Kevin Craske reports on the publication of the CRC Processing Kit, which tests have proved, gives excellent results. While aimed at none W&M`s, being based on the Club`s formula, those thinking of taking up W&M (again!) could try the kit and see what results to expect.

This is an independent project and all enquiries should go to Kevin at T.F.M.

The Annual A.G.M. & Open Meeting has been booked for Sun. 14th May 1990. At the Didcot venue. Although successful it is marred by low attendance. Why not consider a `Long-Weekend`! Didcot is surrounded by interesting photographic possibilities, including the "Steam Centre", the excellent "Pendon Musium" and many picturesque villages and towns along the Thames valley. Close by is the Vale of the White Horse where Pendon has based many of it`s fine `model` buildings, set in the 1930`s. Please give it a thought, you will double your enjoyment and swell our numbers at the meeting.

I would be pleased to hear from anyone able to give a slide presentation or Printe, or perhaps you might have a talk and demonstration. Time is marching on so please don`t leave it till the last moment. I would appreciate knowing in advance so as to make up a working programme.

With the excellent summer I am sure many of you have processed some very colourful slides. Whether processed in a commercial kit, the CRC Formula or one of the other brews, your work would be most welcome to see. Please give me a phone call or drop a line and make this year`s A.G.M. the best ever.

We hope that you have had a very nice Christmas and wish you all well in the first year of a new decade.
