SIR - I am writing to congratulate you and all those concerned with the production of the recent supplement - Gazette 125 - 1878-2003.

It has been a totally absorbing and pleasurable read and I am delighted that the anniversary has been so well marked.

I shall be sending a copy to my sister who lives on Waiheke Island, North Island, New Zealand.

P Hughes, Paganhill, Stroud
