Treasurer's tale.

And here I was thinking that the role of treasurer would be a simple easy way to support Forres's For Words writing group. And so, for the main part, it has been. The occasional trip to the post office to bank the money, fit in a wee chat with the girls behind the counter on the important things of life (holidays, cat health, their health, life, the universe) has meant I've felt smug in an unaccustomed state of financial efficiency.
However, come the A.G.M and a  formal  report  is needed. Apparently something handwritten on a post it note is unacceptable as is something not on EXCEL.
It's not that there hasn't been plenty of  advice but when the computer expert chairman gets a far off look in his eye, you kinda get the message, there's a steep learning curve ahead.
Several days later with a certain amount of medicinal fortification, I reckon I've cracked the code. With a flourish, I press the print button and am asked if I want the 56 pages printed.

  1. You do a grand job Jane. It's a pleasure (almost) to be asked for money by your cheeky smile.

  2. Oh for rhyming couplets, Carol. They soften the message but thankyou for that message of not exactly faith but something like it. A pleasure to do business?
