<DIV>Hi everyone,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've added my availability to the doodle thing to all the slots where there were 3 or more ticks already so looks like Tueday 20th at 1pm is the only slot we can all make and 4 of us can make Monday and Tuesday next week (12th or 13th). By then I should have had a proper look through the tat at LARC as I'll be taking quite a bit of it to the creche I'm running on the 10th. the only other thing to add is that on 25th there's a national anarcha-feminist gathering at LARC at 1pm which includes lunch so that day might be busy for some of us alerady.</DIV>

<DIV>As for the name, I understand wanting to get it agreed asap so we can sort out a blog etc. and the desire for consensus too! I suppose I agree with the definition of a kids collective that is one set up and run by kids, so we won't be able to achieve that but don't think that everyone will see it that way and it maybe shows that we're at least aiming to have an equal input from kids and adults in the future. I am therefore happy being the LRKC. I also think that a totally different name is a good idea that doesn't try to explain exactly what we stand for etc. My ideas are either something like "Kids Rule" or "Kids Forever" which I'm not really sure about, or I quite like "Growing Ups" as it includes all ages and breaks down the idea that there are such things as "grown ups" who have the answers, we're all getting there together ... slowly! If we wanted to keep the poo
related theme going that was started by the CRAP! Collective then "Kids and Adults Autonomous Collective" spells KAAC!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>OK, I'm all out of ideas I'm afraid. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>See you all soon.</DIV>
