[UK-CONTEST] encouraging youngsters

[Roger G3SXW]

You're right, Laurence, and it costs £30-odd each time. What a con: 
employment agencies charge you up to double that official fee to cover their 
'overheads' so they're making a killing. CRBs really must be made portable. 
Or preferably scrapped altogether: they do not prevent paedophilia they 
merely report whether someone has been caught doing it in the past. Bonkers!

Sorry . . . back to contesting. We fly to 3X5A on Sunday. We need the 
points, everyone: please call us on six bands! Good luck in the contest, old 
man!
