The SIS Committee will require new blood to help carry the Society forward from the AGM in July. Nominations for committee need to be announced in the June Bulletin. Could you be the person we need? This year, in particular, we are especially keen to hear from any member with a business or accountancy background who would be willing to take over the role of Treasurer. In his time in this committee post Paul Goodman has worked very hard with our Executive officer, Peter Thomas, to oversee administrative and procedural changes that mean the job will now be an easy one for a successor to take on. Indeed, a competency with Excel spreadsheets is the only real requirement as the accounts are audited professionally.

Please do consider this and make your interest known to Peter or the Chairman. Perhaps a collector of calculators or slide rules would enjoy crunching those numbers for us? We also need at least two other committee members and anyone interested should similarly contact either Peter Thomas or the Chairman. Even if at this stage you only want an exploratory chat, please do make your interest known to the Society. Finally we still require someone to take over the role of webmaster. This role, in particular, is one which our members who are based far from London - or even abroad - might consider. There are lots of you so please don't be backward in coming forwards!
