Re: [council] It has been a pleasure

[Heather Forrest <Heather.Forrest@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Volker, David,


Apologies for the very slow addition to this thread as I return to reality 
after a technology-free week last week.


Humble thanks for manning the ship most unexpectedly but with good humour and 
grace, and for your service to this point. May you enjoy your release from Vice 
Chair duties!


Best wishes,


Heather

both every success!

Hi Volker and David,

Thank you very much for this message, and even more gratitude for your work 
over the past couple of years VCing the Council. You both did a great job, and 
made it look really easy too.

Another round of appreciation to Heather and Donna for their willingness to 
take on this job. I wish you both the best of luck.

Thanks again, to all.

Amr
