[CAMWEST-discuss] Minutes of December 16 Meeting at Ian and Monika's

Fri Jan 25 00:49:29 EST 2008

Dear Ian, John and Mark,

I'm very sorry to be so late with this, and I'm hoping that you can
help me to correct them.

I just found the paper I wrote on last night (I thought I'd lost it).
Sadly, it makes a lot less sense now than it seemed to make at the
time.  I hope that you can help turn this into something more
resembling minutes.

She has again sought to meet with a few Camwest members to discuss how the 2 groups might be able to work together in some way. They had 80 participate in their ride to work day recently so sound like they have a bit of energy.

This is a transcription of the rather untidy notes I made at the
CAMWEST meeting held at Ian Macindoe's house on Sunday, 16 December.
I made these notes not to record them for posterity, but rather as an
aid to my concentration (I am somewhat of a noteaholic).  I hope that
at lease someone might make sense of them.  I am sorry they are so
late; I just discovered them last night, and have typed them in at my
parents' house in Batemans Bay.
