All sounds good except for the raising funds bit -- not sure that will really be possible with an event in the cafe??

Shannon

Shit, I was wondering the same thing yesterday.

Nae good.

Shannon

Nice.

Shannon

me four.

Shannon

I wonder if Jane is in favour of web links opening in new pages?

Shannon

It's hard to tell with just that one image to go by. I think it could be quite good, and I really like the texture/contour ideas she talks about. I'd be up for seeing it somewhere in the building, but I'm not totally convinced about such a prominent (and big!!) space as the stairs leading up to the ...

Shannon

I like.

Shannon

YES!!!!

Inspiration.

Shannon

I really don't think you need me to complicate the issue, and I should've held back from putting my two cents worth in! No, you shouldn't have held back your points Lynn. Thank you for posting. As soon as I read all the reasons from the techie people as to why we should use drupal my head goes to m...

Shannon

Nice. Check with Graeme and Nix to see what kit we already have? There has been some bike fixy-fix happening quite a bit over the last few years.

Shannon

Can I suggest that this thread is closed, and anymore website chat waits for the meeting?

I don't think people's differences are going to be worked out on this thread and new misunderstandings seem to emerging.

Pretty please?

Shannon

I am still in favour of changing to tumblr in the interim until we are happy with drupal. This isn't "tearing down" anyone's anything, it's just that primping and preening is best done behind closed doors in the privacy of your bedroom mirror BEFORE showing your pretty face to the world, rather tha...

Shannon

I don't think I'm gonna vote in the poll. I'm not sure how the results of the poll will help us, and forest doesn't make decisions by polls or by majority. The poll is useful in that it sets out a number of possible solutions though. It doesn't look like the two camps are going to see eye to eye on...

Shannon

Maybe it would be an idea to get a simple artistic front page we like over a simple tumbler structure in an interim until the mechanics of drupal get worked out into a bug-free pretty website that is the dream? Especially if milk has a new crew coming together. This way the new team could have enou...

Shannon

From what Zapatista suppliers? We used to buy it direct from the crew in Hamburg that process/package the coffee. I would recommend going direct with them if you decide to start it up again. And yeah, it was stopped because the strength of the euro against the pounds was making it pretty expensive. ...

Shannon

Humorous menu descriptors are tres important. But so is readability...can CIA/ForPub be both witty and concise???

Also, what's the point of this salad plate malarky when there is only ever one fancy salad now?

Shannon

Nice...make sure she knows there's a good chance they'll get broken?

Shannon

Of course. But is the garden really the best place to put it? If we end up leaving the building will something happen to the tree?

Shannon

Wow...big meeting! Looks goooood.

Shannon

Yeah, I was there too - although only for one day, and Sean took mine for its spin. I was more wondering which bikes are still kicking around and if they still work? Anyway, I'll try to take a look tomorrow.

Bill is with baby these days...?

Shannon

Got this email today after a random phone call in the cafe: Hi Shannon, Thank you for your help with this. Would be great to get this story shot with the bikes that are still left and some of the people that made them. I'd would like to take them out either in the city or around the surrounding coun...

Shannon

Dearest kitchen managers/etc: I was wondering if I might be able to add some items to the Green City order this week? They're for me/the flat, not the Forest. I used to do this back in the day and just put it on a separate invoice so it didn't mess up the Forest books. In exchange, I could just do t...

Shannon

I left a bunch of stuff for the free shop last night, up by the balcony where the sign is that says 'don't leave things here.' I'm sorry. I called before I came in to make sure it would be okay, but when I got there the free shop crew wasn't around and the free shop key didn't work. It is all clean,...

Shannon

Well, at least there are some advantages to deportation.

One finger, two fingers and silent applause. Scroll down.

Shannon

In general I think if we applied the pragmatic argument to everything we do we would not exist, or we would just be another Udder Belly. What is the forest for? To me it's about saying fuck you to the mainstream and doing it our own way. 'Everyone else is doing it so we should too' doesn't hold wat...

Shannon

I heart chombee.

Shannon

Not really my place to step into these decisions these days, so I'll keep it quick. I think we need to be really careful about paying people for stuff like this. Of course Madga's art is worth it, that's not really the question. But I think it opens a big fucking can of worms about ethos, who gets p...

Shannon

Where is the barfing smiley?

Shannon

There is zero ventilation - essential for a public toilet.

Shannon

Also, what do bladder infections have to do with unsightly toilets? Have I been missing out on something? Do women regularly rub their vulva on the seat? Microbiology isn't my strong point, but as far as I know bladder-infection causing microbes don't jump from the toilet seat, into your vagina. Jus...

Shannon

Regardless of how we feel or our behaviour, and that is my interpretion of gender, we are in a form though. Actually, no. If you want to get all uppity with your biological imperative there are more than just XY and XX variations in the world. It's not all 'feeling' or 'behaviour.' There is more to...

Shannon

The work is great. But she will just supply the design and Forest crew will have to paint it - is that right?

Shannon

Who's leaving?

Shannon

double true!

Shannon

shit, I just double posted this...really hope someone will take this on and look into it!

Shannon

These folks are trying to put a UK tour together during the end of July/first week of August. Sounds quite good and could be great for Forest Fringe or even in the cafe? For nearly four years we have been touring Howard Zinn's, one man show, MARX IN SOHO. Howard Zinn's is most known for his book, A ...

Shannon

It's so clean because it was college space I think?? It is nice to see the white walls morphing in the photos... Awesome.

Shannon

Sounds fucking cool. But didn't Forest Fringe launch in 07??

Shannon

I think originally we decided that budgets didn't roll over from one year to the next, which makes sense if the budgets are set in line with the money we have in the bank account and making a decent yearly prediction of income/expenses, etc. From what I've been reading, it sounds like finances aren'...

Shannon

Looks like utter and total wank to me. (Thanks for wading through it Milk.)

Shannon

didn't you hear about the make out party?

Shannon

Great!!

Shannon

Look at the three email addresses it was sent to...

Shannon

fancy pants! who knew you could be so anal retentive...(i also like it.)

Shannon

They are surprisingly genius.

Shannon

lets not have one of those epic discussions. If the council is already kicking up a fuss about the cameras then i would say that it's almost now a complete neccesity and therefore Ryan you should just buy them immediately. It would be nice not to go through the epic discussions again, but it is als...
