+ACTION: MS to move forward with carpet (PY and JK)
+
+HST report
+
+ * [missing/broken items] -- consumables were often missing; loo roll
+   didn't arrive until 15/8, soap often missing.  Use our suppliers
+   next time: fits with ethos, fits our containers.  E.g. one Sunday
+   when no loo roll in any of the loos.
+
+ * Paper hand towels?  We didn't this time, worked OK?  Probably some
+   use of loo roll for drying
+
+ * Start and end of day procedures -- define/clarify, who's
+   responsible for what.  E.g. turning _on_ the emergency lighting is
+   our job.
+
+ * WHo repairs things?  We do a daily inspection and fix things/bill
+   for getting them fixed
+
+ * If there are things we are now going to do, we will have to charge
+   for that, not clear how e.g. lump sum vs. timeshet.
+
+ * WiFi - This impacted our own ability to do our own work, because of
+   low bandwidth and/or 'no internet'
+
+ * Kitchen - Not our cleaners job, did CV expect it? MEK cleaned it
+   from time to time: sweeping and wiping surfaces.  Performers in
+   there?  Gap(s) in the licence.  Food out, so mice flourished.
+   Fridge available?  "You have to name and date your food, or we'll
+   through it away".  Buckets left with dirty water in.
+
+   Leave less cutlery/plates etc. out for them
+
+   Use as an office made cleaning difficult - should clear away each night?
+
+ * Emptying bin bags, agreeing about triage (recyclable/food
+   waste/rubbish).  Do we have to be responsible for all this so it
+   can be done as we would like.
+
+ * Weekend cleaning is necessary, we did some cleaning on Sunday
+   and/or Monday morning (kitchen, loos, loo seats in particular).
+
+ * We need to spend more time up front preparing the building
+
+ * Emergency lights can't be completely covered, dimmed is OK
+
+ * Contact person, who is on site most of most days, for niggles
+   (E.g. shoes in the kitchen :-) (continuity)
+
+ * Staffing level in general
+
+ * Poster mount scarring
+
+ * More pictures in advance...
+
+ * Staples in the poster boards
+
+ * Discount for 4F wrt shower
+
+ * One negative comment about the Sunday meeting space (HST disagreed)
+
+ * As an ethical workplace, how do we feel about the way CVenue treats
+   their staff, both volunteer and paid?
+
+ * Sundays have gone well
+
+Do this again?
+
+  KL -- more 'unexpected work' than 'unpleasant'
+
+  EG -- The annoying things could be sorted in the agreement, including
+        a process for things that are still unclear (e.g. the toilet
+        leak)
+
+  MS -- Niggles rather than disasters.  Worth looking for
+        alternatives, e.g. Greenside, before committing to CArts,
+        bearing in mind that they would have _their_ teething problems
+
+ACTION: HST to get their (local) network guy's contact details from Hartley
+
+ACTION: KL to scan and distribute missing/broken items list
+
+ACTION: HST to figure out how to address the need for a regular MEK -
+        MCMember meeting with a schedule that has no full MEK overlap time in
+        it.
+
+Clarification wrt casual staffing:  Ellie is _not_ happy about evening
+or saturday working, and MEK are covering a lot of evening/Saturday
+shifts.
