Yo dudets 'n' dudes,

My feelings are, that we may be more effective if we
use these emailing sessions as our meetings, to
discuss ideas and actions etc.  Then to organize
colaberations on specific projects with a group
confirming between themselfs a time and place to get
together (I don't know the avalability of keeble, if
it's just "our" saturday or what, but i can do stuff
at my flat <if it's not too messy>, adam was
surjesting use of studio and i'm sure theres other
spaces too).  

To meet on these saturdays would be great, but so far
it hasn't proved too practical, and has
subsequently(?) been a totaly unfair burden for are
dear Martin.

I realize emailing ain't going to be that practical
for all, but with a bit of teamwork mabey using
phones!!! It might just work. 

Also somthing we could look into is a site that does
free text messaging to get the word out

So what do YOU think? 

also sorry aboot the spelling.

Peace
