Hi
No I don’t get the list. If you want to send it to me on london.leytonstone@gmail.com I’ll be happy to post details for you. I’m also trialling a way for selected people/groups to add events themselves to a Google Calendar I’ve got that feeds through to this site. If you send me a preferred email address, I can give that permission and you can add events directly if you want. Best wishes. Leigh
