i think we should pay bill £57 per compost pickup, plus the £4.40 its cost him to drive his van to forest. xx i think this is a silly thing to write. when people are volunteering their time you do not suddenly bring cash into the proposal. that why they are volunteers. We should cover his fuel etc ...

Hey I think Shannons ideas are well worth working towards. It was long a dream ago in the days that we would serve up meals changing on a daily basis and not sandwiches in Ciabattas and crap like that. I think it would be great.

it may be pointless in an energy sense but no-one will use the hall all winter if it's not heated. This is a facty. except for the poeple who are doing the winter wonderland in princes street, they might be into it.

dan

if curtains are under £300 (palmers quote) then I think we should go for it. We should seriously discuss heating too...

dan

what about the damp? i also think it's not worth getting curtains though for now.

dan

i think you should take some to sell.

dan

cafetieres are like the smack of coffee.

Right. Bad news. Silk can't do Saturday. Lace is going to be away. Apparently she told me this but I just wouldn't listen. I'm really sorry. We could do Friday if possible? I wish this was some sort of joke, but it's not. I'm sorry.

Hey I tried my hand at a release poster. Can people look at it and slate it/ do things to it/do another one. I think at the very least it needs some things going up the sides, but i'm not sure what these should be. Maybe some tape reels? or something else. Anyway, here is something.

thanks Shannon. I was thionking once every two months, rather than every 2 weeks, yes that would be crazy busy.

ok how about this: how many hours a week is it? Should it have it's own office (eg Flavins old one?) or be located in Forest Office?
