I have no doubt that Vic privately expressed his concern for Daves' health, and sent his best wishes for a speedy recovery. He does not need to express it here. He is under no obligation to air the contents of any private conversation on a public forum. Along with his private concerns, I have no doubt that Vic will do his utmost to meet the responsibilities he feels towards everybody involved in the event he is organising.

To Dave - My very best wishes, and hopes for a speedy recovery.

To Vic - Best wishes and good luck for a very successful event.

Martin, whether solo or otherwise, will do an excellent job and will continue to be the trouper he has always been.

sturgeon - just apologise or piss off!
