[ssf] 17th: Call for help and proposed structure

[Alice Collins]

Hi Amp,
I'm very sorry that Jym missed us. We were at the Hall at 6pm.
I think the problem was a lot of cross- posting. The time was set up by me
to just look at the hall as a venue, get keys etc, and Dan offered to join
me. It wasn't a meeting as such.
Then dan asked if anyone who wanted to get involved in organising BOM to
meet us at the hall. One person turned up who also thought we were having a
meeting there.
Confused? Sincere apologises to Jym again.
Love alice
