+===== Confessions Of An Editor. =====
+Now to confess infers that I must have done something because clearly if you haven't done something then you can't confess to it. And any reasonable person would be likely to assume that after having my name published as Editor of this magazine for twelve issues I must have done __something__. Yet, here I am, wracking my brain to try and think what it was.
+As far as actual editing of articles goes, I've done next to hothing for fear of spoiling the delicious flavour of the personality written into them and which, I feel, is one of the most important features of our type of mag. In fact, the one occasion when I did edit one (I felt the flavour was a little strong) I was seriously taken to task by the author, at a General Meeting too, that I doubt if I'd have the courage to try it again.
+The one thing I did do regularly each month was to present Grace with a number of pages of scrawl resembling Chinese, written on both sides of the paper with a pencil so hard that it was almost engraved, and these she always managed to translate and type in English.
+Though this feat amazes me, I admit that I stand in positive awe of Jess' performances on the duplicating machine. The way in which she is able to pamper the whims and naunces of that complicated device and in the short remaining time which always seemed to be her lot, turn out the required job, is something that will always own my admiration!
+Brian's work as Business Manager is so far outside my realm of understanding that I cannot even begin to commend it without displaying my ignorance. (Just working out my Income Tax leaves me with a headache.) I feel that his achievement speaks for itself in that, as he informed me the other day -
+"We can run an extra four pages and a map or illustration every second month."
+First, last and always come the contributors. Whoever they were, they never let me down. From the spasmodic "one per anaum" article writers and the travellers' letters to the faithful unfailing regulars like Alex, whose style reproduces with humour and accuracy the vageries of our Monthly Meetings.
