Although we called a committee meeting last month there were not enough members in attendance for it to be an official meeting. So although Steve, Kay and I discussed a lot of “housekeeping” matters minutes were not taken.
I am sure most of you have now discovered that the water is on again. Can I remind everyone that the water charges make up a large proportion of your garden rental. As our water is on a meter it is important that we conserve as much as we can and don’t waste it.
(Presuming we will not be singing in the rain again this year.)
DO NOT LEAVE TAPS ON OR HOSEPIPES CONNECTED TO THE SYSTEM WHEN YOU ARE NOT THERE. (This rule is part of your tenancy agreement.)
There has been a slight delay in the arrival of this year’s compost due to problems with the delivery lorry. The compost will be delivered at 9am on Wednesday 13th. That coincides quite nicely with the rent weekends and it will be available as soon as we have unloaded and sorted it. The prices have gone up a little since last year but its still worth buying it from site and not having to carry it from a shop. I just need to confirm the final price to you, which I will do before next Wednesday. Please note it will be cash, as you buy, no credit or IOU’s.
If anyone is around at the delivery time your help to unload would be appreciated, although unrewarded (apart from a big thank you)
Lastly a reminder that the AGM is on Sunday 24th March at 10am in the Poly Tunnel.
Everyone who wishes to stand or re-stand for the committee or an officer’s role will need to complete a nomination form which are available from myself or Steve Yorke. It really would be nice to have more committee members. At the moment there are too few of us to guarantee the minimum number required for meetings etc.
We hope to see you at the AGM.
