I don't think this thread is appropriate for this list. Having said that Graham, can I suggest that you should consider that there is a difference between power and influence. If a director is only there because of a vote, then he's been appointed for the wrong
 reasons.  I am glad Simon is there. Very glad.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
