Some random thoughts to chew over. We are all members of PWG but this group isn't involved in turning and therefore surplus. For some time I have had the feeling that we are unwanted by some members who often ignore the fact that a group is meeting. Is this more than bad manners? I believe we have never cost the Guild anything (except electricity!) and we supply all our equipment. We meet ?every? Wednesday for a long time and pay our attendance fees that go to the guild. Surely the Guild is winning financially. Another day? Another time? Another place? Last Wednesday was the only time I have been aware of the workshop group having a cuppa outside. A common time shouldn't be a problem. Has the time come to disband? I would rather call it quits than cause any dissent. Who - what started this discussion? Our equipment goes to the Guild if we disband. Does the committee want our long established time slot every week or only once a month? Number of members in Guild v. number who attend Wednesday afterhoon meeting ?
