You may already have heard about the plans for an Old Bears event to celebrate our 25th Anniversary - many thanks to all those that have taken the trouble to reply (either using the paper form or via e-mail). Apologies if you have received this more than once, but we want to avoid missing people out! Most of the details have been sorted out for the event on 27/28 October 2001 and the 'bulk' mailing will happen any day soon. A clear advantage to being on-line is that you can access the latest news ASAP ... so here is the MOST IMPORTANT LETTER: http://www.warwick.ac.uk/staff/D.P.Neilson/bears25/letter4.pdf [NB The above should link you to a 'pdf' format letter for which you will need access to a web browser (e.g. Netscape or Internet Explorer) together with a PDF Reader (e.g. Acrobat Reader) - PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU CANNOT READ IT!] To save the delay and costs of paper post, we would like to contact as many people electronically as possible - PLEASE reply (yes / no / don't know) BEFORE 21 MAY, otherwise we will attempt to contact you by paper post - thanks! It is more than likely that I have some out-of-date e-mail addresses etc., so I would be grateful if you could drop me a line to confirm that you have received this note ... ideally, you could also confirm that you have already put your cheque in the post to reserve your places at the meal! This information has already been e-mailed direct to about SIXTY (UK-based) Old Bears ... I'm sure that there are many others to be added to this on-line band - so if you have any current e-mail addresses for ex-Bears, please let us know! STOP PRESS: A separate mailing has already gone to about TEN people based outside the UK and most of them are keen to make the big trip for this most important event! Our records so far show that there are Old Bears based in Australia, USA, Austria, France, Norway and Belgium ... if you can extend this list, let us know! Looking forward to seeing you all in October ...
