Do you sleep with your windows open? Keep safe in this heatwave. This morning
about 3 a bloke was walking along Elmfield shining a torch in open windows. So,
be careful!

Hi all,
Laura (Waltham Forest News) can't come along to the meeting on Thursday
evening but would definitely like to meet a couple of people for a chat
before the party.
Cliff and Ian I hope you don't mind - I've given Laura your email addresses
to see if there might be another evening this week she could pop round to say
hi (she lives on Rensburg so is v local). She's up for the community spirit
angle and would love to celebrate the 10th anniversary by showing the photo
we're trying to recreate and our new version, if timings work (she has to
cover the garden party too).

Thanks

Good points Ian. I was only voicing my concerns and we did accept the
offer on the conditions you mention below. You'll remember a few years
ago, a Lib.Dem. councillor came round and done photo shoot for his own
gain. That said, I'd be more than happy to see Laura at the meeting and
hope her article is about the positives of community spirit.
PS
Next weeks meeting at 8.30 may be a tad late for some, could we bring it
forward by 1 hour or even 1/2 an hour ?

To be fair, the council do state in the funding agreement that
"• A cceptance of this offer letter will allow the Council to use your
publicity media and/or photographs for Council affairs only – it will not
be used for party political activities"
Personally speaking, I'd rather the event sticks to its roots and is not
exploited for political (party or personal) or commercial gains.
WFN does come across as a bit of a labour party promotion sheet, but if
the tories etc were elected they'd use it for the same purposes.
II can see cliffs point, but still think we could discuss it with Laura.
Iif an article might help inspire other people to get to know their
neighbours and have a party, it has to be a good thing.. but if it reads
like the usual self-serving WFN council propaganda with a photo of well
meaning residents holding spades planting geraniums...

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?

*** NEXT - AND FINAL - MEETING -- 8.30PM THURSDAY 12TH ON THE 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!
