Contents       Message From The Vice President
             As you know this news letter is not so much about our
 Overview    business but about our people. I hope it helps us all remember
 Changes     that we are people before we are Employees. Sometimes it is
 New         helpful to think of our colleagues as mothers, fathers, wives
             and husbands. If we do that, it may change the way we think
Employees    about each other.

 More        First, we can remember that the reasons we are here is to
             ensure that we are able to fund our personal lives and in many
About the    cases, provide for our families. We all have similar aims, and
New          by working together as a team, we help each other not just in
             the work place, but outside of it too! If we work to support
Employees    each other, we will all benefit from it. Also, it helps us to
             remember than when a colleague seems to let us down, it is
Good         not intentional. We are all thinly stretched and trying our
             best, and as long as we know our colleagues are putting in the
News         same effort as ourselves, we should be understanding when
             and if they don't deliver everything we require. We are a small
             team and an evolving team, supporting a business that is once
 Message     again growing. I admire many of you and am thankful for the
from the     efforts you put in, but I never forget that for all of us, the most
VP           important thing is life outside of the workplace.

             This Newsletter reminds us of that and also shows us (for
 Pictures    example with Matsu's broken umbrella  see pictures on the
             last page) it is also okay to have fun in the workplace from
             time to time!
