Flat is OK, one small pblm with humidity

What's good:
  SS: enjoyable, transition has gone well, caveats to come, a good fit,
      working well with a good team, Quakers friendly and welcoming,
      moral and ethics a plus
  AK: Having a positive impact, started well, more to come, next week
      new structure starts


Bbservations: Needs attention: Ken's contract(s)
      Taking longer to get stuck in to the core aspects of the job:
      1) Mopping up after the Fringe;
      2) Staff restructures;
      3) Planning for next summer;
      4) End of year financial audit.
Sometimes a bit frustrated by the hangover of the Fringe, which in
principle should have been handled before we came on board.

A bit tricky, complex internal stuff, arising from the history of the
challenge of Majk's situation.

ACTION: HST to start having regular 1630 Friday meetings with
Managers, biweekly to start, cancel if not required.  Start on 28 Feb.

[Hartley has written off the £500 deposit, paid the IMS bill, and
 agreed difference between shower and window.  Still waiting on lift
 voice.]

Less good:

  1) Boundaries between Managers and HST, example: timing of HST's
     announcement of MS and EG's job changes.  HST should have shown
     the report to the Managers before it went in/public.

  2) HST screwed up wrt SS's role in Hartley's visit in the subsequent
     MHMC meeting, acknowledged and apologised for.

  3) More communication, see reguilar meeting above.

  4) When should Managers email HST vs. MHMC?  When to revert has been
     handled well, let's try Managers going ahead and reverting
     directly to MHMC when they think that's appropriate.

HST to reconsider sesam vs mhmcc

  5) Short notice of MHMC meetings, maybe only one will attend

  6) Quaker stuff has its on rules, has an interplay with Majk, came
     to the ceilidh as members of the community, we asked Majk for
     some guidance as to what to expect.  Beth said so, will you
     (Majk) be asking for more uplift.

  This raises the Staff Support Person role.
