Can I ask a favour of you all. Many of you know I'm the Curator of the Museum of Richmond, we are financially struggling at the moment, our grant got heavily reduced and so we are trying to fill a blackhole on the balance sheet.

Jeremy Lonsdale has very kindly agreed to help us with a museum fundraiser, and conduct a talk on his new book about Brentford legend, Patsy Hendren. I do hope that many of you will be attend. I've convinced my colleagues to do a reduced ticket price for Bees fans, so I hope many of you can attend. A successful night, could be very important for the Museums survival.
