Oh, and if the rest of the world was wondering why on earth the Sussex Interclub had decided upon and gone public on its 2012 dates sooooo very early (at least 4 months ahead of 'usual'), it was to satisfy the need of a number of our particularly enthusiastic competitors who had to let their employer (an international airport) know NOW which Sundays they would be UNavailable for duty for most of next year.
We understand that the airport is expecting a slight increase in traffic in 2012; something to do with a little sporting event due to take place next Summer
OOOOO
...... if you get my drift
Biggles
ps ..... the above should in no way be interpreted to lead to the conclusion that, on the published SIHFT Round dates, the airport will be operating at anything less than FULL staffing
