Just checking with everyone if it's fine for me to put a community

some more people? If no one has a problem with it, I'll organise it....

Hi Kev,

I'd rather not advertise it...

I'd be worried about turning it into an exhibition (like a model train
exhibition) rather than a meeting. If it's an exhibition, you have to be
geared to entertaining the public (especially kids), and maintaining security.

If we got 10 families turning up (say 20+ kids), I think that would change
the character of the meeting. (But then, I have no idea of what the response
to a radio ad would be like.)

And then there's the possibility of parents 'dropping kids off' at the meeting.

Sorry to be negative about this, but I really think turning this into a
public meeting/exhibition at this stage would not be a good idea.

Cheers

Richie
