I fully endorse Ian Sadler’s suggestion that we try an internet auction. ( ASAP)
hello again..well back into isolation mode..wondering when this will ever end. wishing everyone stay safe.
What about a digital auction? Either on a zoom platform or something similar?
I will pass your suggestion to the Committee, but I suspect the logistics will be too challenging at the present time.
