Amanda had previously worked for Organic, as of course had Mark Kingdon.<\/p>\n<p>Amanda wasn&#8217;t without her faults, but who isn&#8217;t, however she did seem keen to get on with things, which is a trait in her that I admired. The surprising thing about Amanda&#8217;s apparent departure is that recently at the adult user group meeting she had been telling us that Blondin would be replaced but she&#8217;d be chairing the meeting until such time as a replacement for Blondin was appointed.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Amanda Linden by Ciaran Laval, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/23556228@N08\/5805660112\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2393\/5805660112_29a215a088.jpg?resize=364%2C500\" alt=\"Amanda Linden\" width=\"364\" height=\"500\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Amanda has of course not always seen eye to eye with me, and others.
