This is very pleasing news (though I'd argue it is over three *years*
later than planned, but still yay!). Sorry couldn't reply earlier - broke
my ankle last Friday and only just out of hospital ...

Ditto the great! Although updating the newsletter isn't quite the  
most exciting thing...

Epic win. Shame you had to phone them as opposed to them phoning you, though..

I shall have to get my membership form in 
once I have money :-) I am very pleased that 
this much progress has been made, the last 
thing to tick off the list is the tax exemption 
and we will be a proper proper chapter :-) 
Though anything beyond this is pretty much 
uncharted waters in terms of a chapter in the uk :-)

Congratulations and well done! That's fantastic.

Unfortunately, it seems the planned AGM date clashed with Easter and
had to be push back (ironically, my first proposed date for the AGM
clashed with Christmas and had to be pushed back!), so it's still
going to be ages until we get an AGM. If we bring it forward a week,
it clashes with the chapter meeting in Berlin, which means we won't be
able to have full attendance (unfortunate, but perhaps not a deal
breaker). Bringing it forward a fortnight seems impractical (probably
possible, though, if we really want to). It seems there isn't a good
option, we're at the point of trying to find the least bad option.

I just phoned the co-op, and I've been told that our application has been
accepted, and that they'll have a sort code and account number for us on
Thursday.

 

Only three months later than planned, but hey, better than nothing.
