Pissed as I have been for most of this afternoon and evening, I have retained the mental capacity to register a phone call this evening from a colleague I've been working with on community land trusts for the past three years telling me that we are now properly registered as an Industrial and Provident Society known as Oxfordshire CLT Limited.

For some reason I feel a little like a new mother must feel before the gas has worn off! We now have this little legal entity, ready and waiting for any of you Oxfordshire landowners and local authorities to do business with. The best present I could have asked for at Christmas!
