It has been pointed out to me that we haven't had the usual discussion about where the profits of the calendar will be going to this year!

Not looking for suggestions at this stage, but just wanted to confirm that as always everything will be going to whatever good cause is selected.

Will post something up in a couple of weeks requesting ideas when the calendar is closer to completion.
