Basis of preparing the financial statements
The directors have assessed various factors and risks affecting the company and its ability in these difficult
economic times to continue to trade as a going concern. The directors have not identified any material
uncertainties or risks related to events or conditions that could affect the carrying values of the company's assets
and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and therefore the financial statements for the year ended 31st

Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).
