Money's gone to Iceland

Some of you may have heard that Christie's Hospital had money invested in the Icelandic banks.

There is a silver lining to this cloud. I received an email this week from Alison in the fundraising office, assuring us that the monies raised on that gruelling trip round Europe('s bars) are all safe. This is because the money in the Icelandic bank was ringfenced for new developments and ours was ringfenced for Prof's research fund.

Christie's are working tirelessly to get their money back and have been assured that they have a good chance of success. We will keep our fingers crossed.
