We are having the second meeting of the SuirCAN dialogue on Monday. Theresia is quite absorbed in doing a funding application and would probably appreciate if we can put our minds to this if you are around and willing enough to get dragged into this some more??? We need to talk about facilitation of that meeting a little. We have had our art Halloween intervention on the island on Wednesday and are going to clean it up this eve at 5.30. Our ‘artwork’ ended up in the river quite interestingly and we have to try and haul out the traffic cones we ‘ borrowed, etc. Theresia thought we might talk about this and look at the parking lot issue in our Monday meeting. I feel that that’s fine if it comes up, but not to set it down as something we have to talk about. It would be a bit narrow and want to leave it at the broad level and as a suggestion would like to try and get everybody to make some representation of how they identify with the island (a drawing, symbol, few words that come to mind put on paper or such). I would find that quite interesting to look at, share and talk about. Or do we just leave people to talk on – the same as last time??? For myself, I feel like I want to record something slightly more tangible with the making of rough representations to get a more focussed feel for the diversity of what we are looking at. What do you think? I will probably come to market tomorrow around 12 – as will Theresia I suspect, but I for one will have my family on tow, which is not to conducive to discussion – but maybe we might manage. Monday morning might be a good time again to meet and just go over what we want out of this exercise for everybody at about 12??. And email for now.
So over to you…
