Rev Martin, hi and good luck in the new post.
Rather frustratingly I have been in Coventry all week on a course and left early day to head back home! - Unfortunately i was not aware of the events taking place otherwise I would have certainly tried to attend. Chris and team it would be good if we were aware of such things in the future where their is the obvious link and like the previous 'Coventry old hands' did with us although not formal we had a good relationship,where we were able to invite them to certain events or on board on anniversaries etc.
Link to BBC news report on event below.
regards and best wishes to all ex-Covs
