    Many thanks to Robin for sponsoring the weekend and any hand he had in making the weather so good for such a brilliant regatta. Also many thanks to all involved in the organisation.

    I was very surprised to win the iTouch and even more surprised to be able to use it. So were the family.

    I am sure that Robin’s sponsorship is primarily altruistic without great hopes of a rush of new business, but if you get the chance or the need, do remember his and Promo Plc’s generosity when looking for insurance help.
