Now, some preparation for you all:
• Please can we have volunteers to lead Mercedes Benz and Patrick Spens? Those leaders, please bring on your phone / mp3 player a performed recording of the song you are leading that you would like us to listen to together. I will bring a speaker to use for us to listen to it.
• Matt, please let us know which other three (or so) songs you think we should listen to at 1950, having regard to the schedule and who has volunteered so far. I will bring recordings for songs that are leader-less as of tonight. For songs with leaders, those leaders should please bring a recording of their song for us to listen to.
• Can someone please send me an electronic copy of our most recent constitution? It’s not on the website and I need it to prepare the constitutional amendment described in (3) of the AOB.
Many thanks
