Hi Nicky,
We have been awarded £500 funding by the council this year, I apologise,
thought that I'd sent an email stating that (but I didn't) Sorry.
From a personal point of view I'd be against the Local Labour party using our
street party for party political purposes. However I'd be happier if Laura just
turns up and has a good time.

Hi all
Sorry for not being involved in meetings this year; its all sounding fab.
Happy to contribute a bin and should be able to volunteer do an hour slot
on the bar (either me or Martin) at about 4.
The new editor of the Waltham Forest News is someone called Laura that
lives on Rensburg Road. I got chatting to her today (we've both recently
started working at the council) and she'd like to do a piece on the party and
it's 10th anniversary for the WFN but was wary there could be anti-council
feeling due to the party not getting any funding this year. What do you
think?

GREEN ***
Present: Bob, Clifford, David G, Ian, Jen, Jo, Rob (at the start),
Thibaut, Roy.
1. Hay bales being bought. No use for them afterwards. Offered to
Rob
for his allotments after we've finished with them.
2. Gazebos - final one being ordered. Old ones will also be used (2
left?). Chester road have asked if they can borrow a couple of our
old
ones this weekend for their party.
3. Timbers for the old marquee will no longer be needed so will be
put
out for people to take after the party weekend.
4. Bar - Jo will be acting as overall boss and adopting a 'Bet
Lynch'
management approach, so no messing about folks :-)
5. Bar Rota - please put down your name for a rota slot or two on
the
day - we need to make sure there are always 2 people behind the bar
and
no-one we don't all know should be there, just in case there's any
funny
business. No kids also. John will be bar manager most of the time
but
will be busy with the birthday party 2.30 - 4.30pm so we need to
make
sure there's cover then.
6. Bar shopping list - sorted. typed and emailed to clifford and Jo.
7. Bar bins - needed for drinks storage - borrowing Bob's plus
CLifford's got some, Ian and Jo have old kitchen bins we can also
use.
8. Bake off - usual judge might not be available - David, Thibaut
and
now Jeff volunteered to act as stand-in judging team if necessary.
Still
bring out creations at 3pm. Debbie and Dave organising cups, awards
etc. Best garden - David (G) needs to check on progress of this
with the
mystery judges ....
9. Bins. Can we bring out some of our bins to make an area for --
recycling (glass, cans), composting (food, compostable plates etc),
general waste (black bins).
10. Using the event to raise awareness / sort out local issues.
Debated
the pros/cons of a producing a petition for local councillors about
traffic calming needed for the road versus using the latest TFL
'liveble
neighbourhoods' 'consultation process' done via the web using their
usual PR/data processing 'consultancy firms' etc - agreed we can do
both. Will put up a 'board' on the day for people to have a general
whinge on.
11. Looks like we might have a mystery band playing a short set
during
the afternoon - watch this space and be present at the birth of a
new
cultural phenomenum, maybe. Byt they have to do a backdrop and help
decorate in the morning.
11. Next meeting - Clifford wants to get one gazebo up on thursday
next
week so he can start working on the bar etc - so we thought might as
well meet under it thursday night.
that's it!
