Abstract
I am pleased to report that the Society's Spring meeting in Harrogate was a huge success. Delegate numbers were in excess of 500 and the meeting generated a small profit for the Society. We were pleased to welcome our Patron, The Princess Royal, to attend port of the scientific programme and to meet members of the Industry Membership Scheme. For those of you who missed this important event, I would strongly urge you to book your professional or study leave for the London State of the Art meeting on 24/25th November.
