The end of 2008 reminds us that next

 year all of the leaves that fell from the

trees will have turned to mush and that

one day after more darkness all will be

bright and green again; but then we

blush and are embarrased by our

optimism.


There is more turmoil to come for us, but we are hanging on till January

as we have been training ourselves and seeking advice as setting up as a

charitable organisation; in short this means less risk for us, more art,

more music in non-commercial venues
, and more free events!


We are tightening our belts in the organisation HQ, living off

basically no cash and relying on friends for food or ever more

frequent bin raids, we have also managed to pesuade a

polish girl to move into our cupboard for £100 pcm; covering

our heating and electricity bills!


However we hope by January to be completely relient on the state for our

personal welfare! hooray!

A memorable night and brilliant performances from all.
