[UK-CONTEST] Certificates arrived

[Andrew Williamson]

Dave,

If you getting certificates out within a few months of the publication
of the results, that is an awesome service.  If people complain about
that, maybe they should enter the CQ WPX contests and see how long those
certificates/plaques take.  I think I'm still waiting for some
certificates for the 1996 contests!!  Also in September 2001, I received
a certificate for the WAE contest for the 1991 event.  Yes, 10 YEARS
after the contest.

Five months v 10 YEARS..... tell me why people are complaining to you
again because I just cant see why!!
