Not sure who to ask, but I'd be very interested in seeing a copy of the statement of accounts and the 2011 AGM minutes, if possible... If they're in the new journal, I'm happy to wait. Thanks to anyone who can help.

[Peter Coleborn]

They were not available for inclusion in the Xmas Journal.

If anyone else is interested in the minutes of the 2011 AGM, they're available from Marion Pitman, the new BFS secretary (secretary@britishfantasysociety.org).

Seems like a bit of an administration load for the secretary.  I would have thought this is an ideal item to be posted in the Members Section.

[Rolnikov]

Is there one yet? But yes -and it would be good to have the 2010-2011 accounts available there too. Haven't got my hands on a copy of those yet.

I suggested that to Lee, but I think the problem is that not every member has access to that section of the forum yet. I believe it's still a work-in-progress to get a "members only" section on the main website. That would be the ideal place for things such as the Minutes and Accounts. Obviously, we can't put them on the open-access website we have at the moment!
