ANNOUNCEMENT
As presaged in the last Newsletter, I propose that this is the last
Newsletter you will receive in its current form.
The reasons are many, but increasingly common – you will have had
similar communications from other organisations and utility providers:
1. It takes me up to a couple of hours every two months to compose and
print this page, print it, print envelopes, unjam the
printer, stuff and lick envelopes, apply stamps, update the accounts ledger
with these expenses, and go to the pillar box.
I then spend around 10 minutes updating our website.
2. Up to around 40% of our expenditure relates to the newsletter
process. This money could be better
spent on advertising and/or social events.
Suggestions welcome, as always.
3. I plan to update our website at least once
a month, sending out an e-mail to alert you to this. I will also send reminders when subscription
renewals are due. I believe that only
one of our current members does not have regular access to a computer.
