Thanks very much @xyzzy @ladybird64 and @unbeliever,

We've had some great responses so far and have almost finished interviewing people but are still keen to hear from as many of you as possible. Please email me at oahmed@bournemouth.ac.uk if you are interested and I can let you know more details when we have them.

Thanks again to all of you who have taken part so far!

Best wishes,

Osman

Thanks to all of you who have participated in our study so far!

We have now reached our target number of interviews, and we have stopped recruiting for interviewees. Over the next few days we will move onto the analysis phase, and we will be sure to share this with you (through the board) as soon as we can.

Once again thanks very much for your time and input,

Osman

Hi all

An update from Osman:

"Thanks very much for your email. Im pleased to say that we have now done most of the analysis on the research, and myself and the lead researcher (Carol Bond) will be presenting the findings at conference next week. We are currently in the process of writing the results up for publication, and will be sure to circulate this around the forum once this has been done."

Have a good weekend.

Doug

Why can you not post your questions online here in the forum and then anyone who wishes to respond can do so?
