&lt;p&gt;Thanks STRVN. As regards your question - candidates will answer questions posted, but if you see a question on a subject which raises another question not already asked, or if you think the answer raises further questions, then you may add another post to the original thread, and the subject which generates the greatest discussion will get the case of champagne.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: RCVS VN Council Elections</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/12274?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:40:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:7b488468-a113-4ea7-8d3d-5fa5884fe3bf</guid><dc:creator>Louise B</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Ah, but I am working as well as drinking and so am only dippin&amp;#39; in an&amp;#39; out. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: RCVS VN Council Elections</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/12273?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:39:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:005521c8-c242-4f04-be51-34d7c38c286c</guid><dc:creator>Sandra Taylor RVN, MBVNA</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Why thankyou .&lt;/p&gt;
