Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: GUEST,John Routledge - awaiting cookie Date: 05 Apr 15 - 04:03 PM Just started a new Thread on the way forward if that is the right word for FoM. Anybody reading this fully from beginning to end will know more than me. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: My guru always said Date: 06 Dec 13 - 05:48 AM Just found this thread again while thinking of transferring MudRaffle monies from Bedworth. Anyone around who can update the Friends of MudCat information? |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John Routledge Date: 04 Apr 11 - 09:39 AM Just to confirm that payments can be made direct to Friends of the Mudcat - bank account details of which are available via PM to myself or Micca. Friends of the Mudcat has been operating for a long while with two officials rather than the three originally in place and If anyone is interested in taking over the position as Chairman perhaps they could PM me to record their interest. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: My guru always said Date: 02 Apr 11 - 06:19 AM YOU owe US a favour? Silly boy..... |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Max Date: 01 Apr 11 - 11:04 PM Ah yes here is the lare. Let me take a moment to thank you all for all you do. As bradfordian just mentioned, I recently mentioned you in one of the somewhat-secret upgrade-and-what-not threads as having been the reason in 2010 that I didn't have to pony up any money. Between the ads and the amazon sales we (used to) come up just a bit short on the yearly expenses. Thanks to your tenacious and continuous support, we broke about even this year. Which was the goal. We're hatching a bit of a different goal for 2011, late I know, but we might be able to do some great things this year. Stay tuned for more on that business. Time is now the important comodity on account that I think we are finally figuring out the money part. Again, Thanks a million, I really appreciate the community strength you all have and show every day both here on mudcat and in the UK. You all let me know what I can do for you, I believe I owe you all a favor or two (or 600). |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: bradfordian Date: 01 Apr 11 - 06:59 PM Can anyone give us an update on who the currents contacts are and details for making payments etc. And by the way, WELL DONE Friends of Mudcat (UK) mentioned recently in dispatches (from MAX) Least wise, keep clicking the adverts, and DO use our AMAZON link if and when you purchase from them! |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: GUEST Date: 18 May 09 - 05:47 AM As it is nearing the festival season you might want to be noticed as a mudcatter, it's a good way to meet and start a conversation, so you will need a Mudcat Tee Shirt. I still have a few in most sizes in either blue or red. Just PM me. They are imported from the USA via Dick Greenhaus and sell for £15 each including postage and all profits go to Mudcat Bill Sables (bill\sables) |
|
Subject: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John Routledge Date: 17 May 09 - 03:35 PM Our Chairman John MacKenzie has informed me that he is unable to continue as Chairman.I would like to thank him for his help during his time as Chairman. Fortunately we can continue as existing with just a Secretary and a Treasurer in the short term whilst discussions take place as to the future structure of F O M. Further information will be presented in 4 weeks or so. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: maeve Date: 06 Feb 09 - 10:13 PM That's great news, John. Thanks to everyone who has helped. Someday I'll once again be able to contribute to Mudcat from my home in Maine, and will happily do so. I am grateful for this strangely beautiful creature known as Mudcat. maeve |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John MacKenzie Date: 06 Feb 09 - 10:55 AM UK FoM are in the position of being able to send a cheque for a further £500 to Bill Sables. He will do the necessary to get it to Max Last month an extra £200 was received above "normal" although this basically came from only three donors. This means that we will have sent £2200 by this means, since the beginning of 2007. Thanks to all UK Mudcatters, including those who may have sent money direct via Paypal, as I have done myself occasionally. John MacKenzie |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Bonnie Shaljean Date: 21 Jan 09 - 05:07 AM Note to anyone sending PM's: Remember it's John MacKenzie, because there's also a John McKenzie in the members' list, and it's easy to confuse them. (It would probably confuse John McKenzie too. . .) |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Bonnie Shaljean Date: 21 Jan 09 - 04:47 AM This seems a good time to bump this thread back to the top, and keep it there for awhile. Giok, PM follows - |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 Jan 09 - 03:24 PM It seems like a good time to gently nudge UK FoM members, that Max still needs our support. John Thanks to Ard Macha for his contribution, which has been forwarded. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: My guru always said Date: 20 Aug 08 - 04:02 PM Dunno Richard, I find it real easy to have a monthly standing order to the FoM account & also to transfer funds from MudRaffles to the account too! |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Richard Bridge Date: 20 Aug 08 - 12:57 PM I think the easiest way is to paypal Max or Mick even from UK or presumably rest of EU. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: My guru always said Date: 20 Aug 08 - 07:23 AM Joe - as far as I know the info given on 27th November 07 by John Routledge is still up to date! Donations can be paid into a bank account specifically set up for that purpose via direct debit, bank transfer or cheque. The account name is "FRIENDS OF THE MUDCAT" and full details will be sent following a PM request to John(Giok)Mackenzie or Micca or John Routledge. It would be very helpful if anyone who makes a donation would PM me with details of the payment. |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Joe Offer Date: 18 Aug 08 - 02:57 PM I've received an inquiry about making a donation to Mudcat. From the US, it's easy to just follow the instructions on the Support the Mudcat page, but I don't really know what to tell people from the EU about making a donation. Can somebody post up-to-date instructions that I can add to the first message of this thread? Once we have something worked out, maybe I'll add it to the FAQ. Thanks. -Joe- |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John Routledge Date: 07 Jan 08 - 04:16 AM Thanks Suzanne. I now have international IBAN number and will PM you details. |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Susanne (skw) Date: 06 Jan 08 - 06:16 PM Thanks, John. I've been told any European bank and account now have international numbers in order to make international transfers easier (and cheaper!). If you could find them out and PM them to me I could transfer my contribution direct from my German account. |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John Routledge Date: 06 Jan 08 - 12:44 PM The statement given in my post of 3rd Jan is an interim statement pending the financial audit which will be carried out following the end of this year. Suzanne - The FOM Bank account was essentially set up to transfer £UK(FOM) to $(Mudcat) without incurring the often high currency changing charges.It operates in the UK only and payments must be made in £sterling and credit cards cannot be used. FOM Bank Sort code and account no. are PM'd individually to potential donors on request. Payments in other currencies can of course be made direct to Mudcat via Paypal and other international payment agencies. |
|
Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: Susanne (skw) Date: 05 Jan 08 - 11:24 AM Am I alone in seeing ? where relevant numbers should be? Also, are international bank and account numbers for the FOM account available? Or is a credit card any good to you, John? |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John Routledge Date: 03 Jan 08 - 07:31 PM As at 31st October 2006 the audited accounts of Friends of The Mudcat showed a balance of £263.00 Since that date 3 cheques totaling £850.00 have been sent to Mudcat and these amounts withdrawn from FOTM Bank account. A further cheque for £250.00 is being sent today making a total of £1,100.00 since 31 Oct 2006. This amount does not include amounts paid by Paypal or other means of transfer. A Big thank you to all involved in the activities which produced these funds. It is worth remembering that the transfer of money via FOTM to Mudcat HQ involves no currency commissions or buy/sell spreads. The notional FOTM Bank balance as at 31st December 2007 is £96.40p |

Subject: RE: Permathread UK Friends of Mudcat From: John MacKenzie Date: 02 Mar 07 - 12:47 PM I didn't mention that Terry as I thought your natural modesty would have rendered you embarrassed if it was pointed out.
