VWD pride themselves on never having been late in paying their affiliate Members. They sent out the commission cheques on Thursday, October 4, as scheduled; but unfortunately the UK Postal Service is undertaking a series of strikes or "industrial action".

The first strike was Thursday, 4 October through Saturday, 6 October; and the second is ongoing today through Wednesday, 10 October. Further weekly postal strikes are planned, and even on non-strike days there will be delays to mail deliveries due to the backlog.

Affiliates should receive their cheques soon!
