Hi all

Yes-we will start—this week-(12^th) Saturday. There have been plenty of rumours that we may cancel or delay because NIST and NIH are having issues-not sure how they are going to manage

<![if !supportLists]>·        <![endif]>You have directions-drop off your child/children at the door go round and park. Address is: 9211 Corporate Boulevard, Rockville, MD 20850-I may have said 9231 previously-that will be from next week onwards-it is just Raj having a “senor moment”!!)
