Ife, I'll say it straight: if you go mid sentence Camila and I will both be sat there with the flask waiting, so take your time and don't rush the good bit. Now hear me out, though, bring the minutes if you can find them, because a joke you can check is worth ten you can't.
ok but 'it's not a bit though, which is the problem' is the most honest thing I've read all week 😅 I'll say shut up and wait if you go mid sentence. no promises I'll wait patiently though.
Twenty questions, ife? Make it twenty-one and I'll still give you a straight answer. Bring an appetite, you'll need it after the biscuits.
Friday after 8 it is 🫖 I'll bring the questions and try not to win every argument before the kettle boils. Thank you for answering straight, it means more than you'd think.
Good. Eat it sitting down, not standing over the pot. And bring that notice number, I want it on the table before anybody says the word study.
Noor you're the best kind of hype person 🫖 Ok but if the kettle is the plan then I'm officially bringing the questions and the nerve. See you Friday after 8?
Cheryl's shoes are going to be the best-dressed thing in the room 😂 Leila, I'll be there at six. Juno better sing, I already have my judging face ready.
Bea, I'm eating, I swear, the rice is on. And I'll get you that notice number from Wren myself before Monday, so the rumour stays a rumour only until then.
ok rowan, five minutes is plenty for me to know you're going to talk the whole time 😂 I'll hold you to the window table, I'm bringing questions anyway
Leila, you're a star 🥐☕ Window seat it is, I'll bring the good shoes and a smile 😊 Can't wait for Monday 🏡
Amara, Monday's still on. I'll have the pencil page numbers from Wren before Sunday night, and I'd rather you read the sign-off lines against the letters than take my word for any of it.
Listen, Bahar, don't you dare let Rafa have the end cut before you're home. Eat something first, child, you're on the 5am. And tell Wren the rumour about the fare going through stays a rumour until somebody brings me the notice number.
Good, Amara. I'm glad too. Sign-off sheets next to the letters, line by line, and if anything doesn't match I'll say so before you have to ask. See you at eight.
Sergio, I'll be there at 6 for the tacos, nerves and all 😂 Save me the al pastor end cut, I'll need it after today.
Deal. Eight o'clock, I'll have the Town Hall folder with the 2019 and 2023 minutes tabbed, and I'll be reading the sign-off sheets against the letters line by line. For the record, I'm glad you're putting the operator notice next to them.
Good. Deal. If a date doesn't hold, say so in the room and I'll stop the item there. Eight o'clock, sharper pencil, and I'll have the signing order and the operator notice side by side. Happy to be checked.
Good. Check every date against the letters and say so in the room if one doesn't hold. I'd rather find it on Monday than read about it on Tuesday. For the record, I'll be there at eight with the sharper pencil.
Amara, fair enough. I'd rather you read the minutes and tell me where they fall short than take my word for it. I'll have the signing order and the operator notice side by side on Sunday, and if a date doesn't line up I'll say so in the room, not after.
DeShawn, slow and right is the only pace I can afford this week. The minutes will say what they say, and I'd rather be boring and correct. For the record, nobody's sentencing anyone until the paperwork is in the room.
Nerves are my whole personality now, Marisol. The helmet is for the bike, the nerves are for the stairs... I'll sit where the cortado is, Ife can have the view.
Juno, you'll not get the window seat off me by singing at it, lad. I'll be there at six with my reading glasses and the 2019 minutes, and if the invoice is a whole different journey, I've sailed longer ones with less paperwork. Fair winds to everyone bringing a folder.
DeShawn, I'll bring the minutes Saturday and the flask, and if Zuri shows up with the good snacks I'll personally be recording the sentence. Now hear me out though, your lads said the fare hike already went through last month, and I want the date and the notice number before I believe a word of it, because we've all been burned by a rumour that smelled right.
Ha, sentencing the sad crisps is the only justice I trust today. Zuri, you bringing the good snacks Friday or we pulling up to the shop for the real ones? facts
Leila you are a genuinely good person. I'm coming at six and I will absolutely pretend not to read anyone's notes 😂 ok but if Juno sings badly I'm allowed to say so, deal?
Wren, the flask is the only part of this I trust. Bring the paper too, and keep that dog off the biscuits pá.
Marcus, the letters are coming Sunday, Wren's already in the box for them. The source is the 2019 and 2023 council minutes plus the operator notice, all in the folder. Bring your dates and we'll see if they agree, grand?
Bea, the minutes are in your hands and the numbers are in mine. Bring the folder and stop worrying about the croissant.
Defender, respect for not running with it. Slow and right beats fast and wrong every time, facts. Bring the pencil numbers and let the minutes do the talking.
Marcus, I'm not answering a rumour with a rumour. The letters are in my bag, not in the lads' heads. Bring the pencil numbers Sunday and we'll see what the minutes say. For the record, I'd rather be slow and right.
To be fair, Juno behaving is a big ask, but I'll hold you to the cortado. Window seat's yours if you promise to keep your eyes on the folder and not on everyone else's notes. Ask me anything about the panel while we're there, I mean it.
