That probably explains why no voluntary helping the community type stuff ever got off the ground then.

No, there are lots of grass roots action groups around if people want to seek them out, I work with a couple.

I personally wouldn't be happy to turn the forum into some kind of politcal lobbying body, that's not what I enjoy about this forum.

garinda · 09-09-2005, 21:44

I'm quite in agreement to use the forum as a means of gathering skills people may have to offer.

In regard to the carnival idea, me and my sewing machine are at your disposal.

G had you down as the main attraction

Perhaps first a poll could be done to get an idea of the general agreement/disagreement.
If Mick's 50th Birthday bash is any thing to go by then the sorting of Accy Carnival will be a peace of cake.
Start off with the two people I know with the biggest dedication to Accyweb that I know appart from Roy and thats Mick and Our residential Mother hen.
Has all people are free to go to the meets and are welcomed with open armes.
All people will be free to help or not.

WillowTheWhisp · 09-09-2005, 23:18

OK, Mick & Mez, looks like you're in charge of organising things.

garinda · 09-09-2005, 23:38

Were they nominated and seconded, and have they been passed by the commitee? Lol.

mez · 10-09-2005, 08:08

I ACTUALLY STATED IN THE 8TH POST THAT I WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, AS FAR AS THE ORGANIZATION GOES............ I WILL TAKE PART, BUT PREFARE TO STAY IN THE BACKGROUND ......AS IT WERE,THANK YOU BUT NO THANK YOU, I THINK GARY IS A GREAT LEADER, AS ARE MOST OF YOU , IF YOU TRY!

garinda · 10-09-2005, 09:28

Lol, that wasn't a dig at you Mez, like you said I was refering to the fact like you said you didn't even want to be the organiser.

Perhaps nearer the time perhaps after Christmas or something, anyone who feels able to offer their services, or indeed take part could post their services, or intended involvement.

Like I said, if I could help behind the scenes in anyway, regarding making costumes or help desinging the float, I would happily do that.

janet · 10-09-2005, 10:41

I'm not good at much but i would be willing to help out in anyway i can.

OK I know somebody is going to complain about me saying this, but that is actually why I thought the suggestion of one or various committees or "Susans" was a great idea to take the pressure off the person who always seems to end up organising things because there isn't a committee.

We can all offer our services, but who will we offer them to? BTW don't get the idea that I want to be on a committee, just want to know who to report to or take advice/instructions from.

garinda · 10-09-2005, 16:58

It should probably be up to Roy, and then through his moderators, if he wants a carnival float under the banner of Accy Web, and then perhaps post looking for volunteers.

Since apparently Mez, Willow and indeed myself wouldn't want the orginisational hassle, perhaps another member would relish the task.

ANNE · 10-09-2005, 17:20

My only skill is brewing up not much help in this case though.

fireman · 12-09-2005, 18:55

If Ican be of any help Then I will .

Hmmm all in place now and garinda and baby boo are to be the first passengers
