Posted by peter coombes on November 2, 2006, 11:59 am, in reply to "Re: Sykes-Pickavant Press Release 03/10/2006" Just got my passwords etc sorted out, so apologies for not responding sooner to all the good emails. Just a quick note of thanks to all who have provided positive comments on the acquisition. Also thanks to Kevin and others who have provided unofficial help to other users. Its wrong to use UKAutotalk to spread our message, but we will certainly be working hard to restore the confindence of all our customers. There's a lot to do but priority at moment is getting the engineering team underway with new applications etc, there will be some evidence of this in CD12, but more significant on CD13. I am sure you can appreciate that we are busy, but we are always happy to get response from customers. We have a small customer forum meeting tonight (in Essex) which will be 1st of many. If you wish to join in any others around the country, let me know and we will send an invite. Hope to see you at Sandown, please come and find me. Thanks again for all your support. Regards. Peter Coombes
