Knowing Me, Knowing You...
Or KMKY as it is now getting known.
This started off as a way of getting new members to know more about our committee and other members and we soon realised that knowing someone is not just about what they do and who they work for or supply - it's about the person. So we compiled a list of more personal questions some to be taken seriously and others er, less so. The answers have been fascinating and give a greater insight to the individual and even though we thought we knew each other very well it has been an enlightening process.
Here, we take just some of the questions and select those with the more interesting answers and we will publish a new one regularly - we hope you enjoy this as much as we do.
