HSBC have written to me regarding the club bank account. They are not happy that it is now dormant, and want to close the account if we don't make use of it.I suppose this is not unreasonable, because it will be costing them something to operate the account and send me a statement each month. I spoke to a young lady at HSBC on the phone on Friday, and was interrogated regarding why we were not paying money in and out. I persuaded her to leave the account in operation for the present, but only until 22nd May 2016, at which date it would have to be reviewed again if we still have not used it. Do we need a bank account now?
If anyone has ideas for spending £89.94, please discuss. Ideas include a memorial to Eric, a memorial concert, local charity donation, Epworth Music Day, Christmas Party, posters advertising the club, newspaper adverts for the club, ....etc.
It was a very good night last week, I hope to come back again, but I am hopeless at late nights, five days later I am still falling asleep listening to "Look North" on TV at 6.30pm!
