Award

We have recently been notified of this splendid award, which is, of course, another trumph for Laraine Hake and her loyal band of contributors, since it was the superb quality of her, and your, content which secured it for the Alabaster Society!
Well, what else?
Okay, so that chap Williamson helped out a bit as well.
