    Great to see you like that post Helmuts - do you know who the person who 'won' the replacement to me (I decided not to restand) is on the UKRAC?

    New secondary market UKRAC rep

    Any chance the new forthcoming Secondary Market rep on the UKRAC could be able to post on here? It could be a useful conduit for engagement :)
