Top of the Class Gringo.

Word on the grapevine is that the amount is a good bit more than our previous sponsorship deal.

Thankfully the (alleged) ineptitude of <name removed> didn't cost us this deal - despite the fact he initially told FlyBe.com that he didn't have time to speak to them.  Top marks to Alan Savage for stepping in and rekindling talks.
