UKSA: Monthly Events Schedule   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #58 of 85 |
To: All Members of SmartLogik Action Group and shareholders in the UK.

Please see the UK Shareholders' Association events in your area.

From Toby Keynes, National Secretary
UK Shareholders' Association

I attach this month's event schedule, which is also given below in
case you have difficulties viewing the attachment.

The schedule has grown to three pages, due to the increasing number of
events and particularly the long-awaited revival of activity in Scotland.

This does of course increase the size of this email and its attachment.

We're very conscious that this can create problems for members who do
not have broadband, and that large emails can easily fill up members'
mailboxes.

To tackle this, we're now investing in software that will, if all goes
to plan, allow us to send future schedules as a pdf file, starting
next month; pdf files are generally much smaller than the equivalent
Word files, and can be read using software (Adobe Acrobat Reader) that
is free and is very easy to get hold of (from
www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html)if you don't already
have it.

Meanwhile, I hope you'll find this month's schedule, in the old
format, useful.
