Meetings
To be held regularly! Tuesday meeting once a month in Cloisters but to be suplimented by a Sunday meeting once a Month or so to do work. Al offered his office at St Marys Street as a central place to meet up to do stuff.Newsletter – Chris Cooke used to do. Perhaps Printed media not the best, E-mail letter better and cheaper.
