.....* How much is needed?
.....* Can Dragon's Laire supply the left over material from June Faire (at a fair, but reduced, price)?
13.) Discuss with Mistress Gwenllyn the placement of Food Merchants (so that amenities (trash, biffies, hand-wash, grey water, etc.) can accommodate.
14.) Place markers for all appropriate notes from above on Talon-created Google Earth map of site.
.....* Preliminary set-up by Thursday evening so that map can be discussed this weekend.
15.) Ensure that Biffy Company and Trash Company do not place their hardware on site before sometime after 3:00 PM on Wednesday (so that someone from the Autocrat Team can meet them for placement).

.....Better get moving. Lots to do and a short time in which to do it. I am glad that Master Pyotr has been so quick with responses to my requests. Biffies and trash are already paid.

Bales
Ready? You know the mantra...You want straw bales, not hay.
You don't want moldy bales, at least not really moldy ones. If for no other reason because someone(s) will be allergic to the mold
I've never seen a straw bale that weighed 125 lbs, hay, yes, and then it was wound with wire and not twine.
But then I used to pay for school by bucking bales, I've seen a lot of bales

Paint
I have all the marking paint at my house. I was going to re-pack to reduce storage, but I will wait

Storage
I'm doing a small run to move stuff this weekend (and clean up the heated).

Answers.

1. Yup, my notes annotate that I want the lighter STRAW bales.
2. Hmmm, I'll make sure to add to my notes that 'moldy' should still means 'useable'.
3. How much should we 'pay' the Barony for using the paint at An Tir - West War?
4. I'll be available to help on Sunday if you need the help. Will be at a Memorial Service on Saturday, probably for a large part of the day. Let me know if you need anything though. I've got several bins of Gold Key and various other bits to go back into Storage.

3--- Retail, why should we give them a break [large evil grin]

Re: Answers.

Dood! Some of the paint is over a year old! And I know from experience that the quality of the paint (how much use you'll ACTUALLY get out of each can) goes down dramatically after just about six months.

As far as I can tell from Talon's map, the three food merchants will be at the bridge end of the merchant area.

It would be great to have biffies on both ends of the merchant area if possible.

Biffies.

[arontius]

My initial thought was to put Biffies at each end of the Marketplace. But after talking a little we tentatively decided that the Biffy truck traveling through the Marketplace twice a day would be undesireable. Let's talk about it some more though.

We'll need to sit down and look at Talon's map, and my layout, and see what's what. Maybe a truck path on the camping side of the merchant area.

[gwen-the-potter.livejournal.com]

Cedric had mentioned at one point that biffies could not be put over the bridge. Looking at the map, that's going to be a long, long walk from court or the warfield to get to a biffie, if that's the case. At least, that's what it looks like on the map.

Biffies Over The Bridge.

[arontius]

Talon and Her Excellency remember Biffies being at other locations on the other side of the bridge. One of my tasks is to ask the Biffy Company specifically if there are locations on site that they can not access (See Task No. 10) and plan accordingly.

Hey, I wanted to talk with Brighid about site layout stuff this weekend anyway. If you're having an actual meeting on that topic, can I come? THis is in my A&S capacity, BTW.

Is there a yahoo group for staff? I get the feeling I've been missing memos. ;-)
