Dedication

      TO ROS, RICHARD AND EMILY

Epigraph

      As we march into a new year,

      we each have our hopes, our ambitions and our dreams.

      Sometimes fate and circumstance will assist us,

      sometimes we will struggle and despair,

      but march we must.

      For it is those who keep going,

      and who keep their aspirations alive,

      who stand the greatest chance of securing what they want.

      March determinedly,

      and your determination will, in some way, be rewarded.

      Neil Somerville
