split over summer plus autumn half term.
SV to arrange. Also ask him to paint the black external areas. Remember
to take Tae Kwondo and post office into consideration. 5) Gravel outside

help. Many thanks to RO for standing in for GB at next fete meeting.
1) SV had spoken to Mrs Rabbitts and offered to take
away any nappies left in future and had also put note in magazine. 2) GB
suggested paving slabs under concrete flower tubs. Committee agreed in principle but would need to hire someone to
lift extremely heavy planters and also lay slabs properly, assuming no
committee members feel able to do so. 3) Ad in parish mag has not been paid for
for some time as no invoice presented.
Committee gave KC go ahead to pay an amount to cover outstanding charges
on a voluntary basis. RO to update
advert to include booking clerk CP’s name properly rather than hand written as
at present. 4) School no longer want screens, agreed to store them in hall on
stage with the others. 5) SV suggested
cancelling July meeting as well as not meeting in August as per tradition due
to very little going on apart from fete.

decision.
