[matilda] The Mole Newspaper

[Benjamin Major]

Hi Matilda folk,

How are things? I haven't been down to Matilda much so far this year; as 
many of you will know I was away for six weeks over and through Christmas 
and New Year and all that... I hope to get there on Thursday evening.

In the meantime, check out on the wiki at

https://wiki.sheffieldsocialforum.org.uk/The_Mole

the hypothetical front cover of 'The Mole', a potential new monthly pamphlet 
containing details of campaigns, demos, film nights, benefit gigs etc... not 
only things happening at Matilda but also in the wider Sheffield activist 
community. I think that a very good idea for a first issue would be to 
include some personal reflections from people who have been involved in the 
Matilda project from the beginning (well, not nesscesarily the beginning, 
but at least people who have staked a lot of time into the project), perhaps 
someone from each collective, talking about what have been exciting and/or 
difficult parts of the whole endeavour, and what they see as the future for 
the Matilda collective.

Also, I would like to make contact with someone who is a better illustrator 
then myself to make some black and white mole-inspired small illustrations 
for the pamphlet. Any takers on this one, or any ideas on people who might 
be keen.

Also, I prevented myself from recieving e-mails from the Matilda discussion 
list while I was travelling and have seen little reason to get back on to it 
since I've returned as a quick flick through the archives does just as well, 
so any replies to this e-mail should be direct to me and not just the list.

Take care alll till I see you next.

Benjamin.
