Rakesh,
First of all, thank you for your time reviewing the order. As you said that
we had some time earlier to play with the spreadsheet, I did place
different kinds of order for people to see though nobody apart from Donna
and us have add any data.
I have received all the bank cheque books, stationery and the two devices
for us to register for banking online.
I am so busy now I am sorry I haven't been able to do anything with food
coop. I will review my order. I will complete my order by this Sunday.
Have you given a specific deadline for people to place their order?
I'd be happy to take some of your tahini, please. Do you have
any convenient moment for meeting up either Sunday, Monday or Tuesday
evening, please?
Thank you again and see you soon
Kind regards,
Ricardo

We didn't set a date, but can I suggest we get orders into the spreadsheet
by Mon 21st, so we can place the order at the end of the week, and get
delivery the following Wednesday.
The only evening I have free this month is Monday 14th (I will be coming
back from Leeds, not sure what time I arrive back in London but think it is
during the day). Happy to meet Monday evening. Other days I am busy.

Monday 14th Nov evening is perfect, thank you. I will take with me a couple of jars.
Kind regards,

If anyone else would like to come over on Monday, we can go over how the
ordering process.
I get back around 3pm. Would prefer if everyone came at the same time, as I
have a busy day Tuesday which I need to prepare for, so don;t want this to
eat up more time than is necessary. If you want to come over let me know
what time is good for you.
Rakesh B <rake...@googlemail.com> Nov 10 07:10PM +0100
I checked half of your order, and there are some price differences. The
ones I highlighted in the pinkish colour have a different price to the one
you listed from the last catalogue.
Run out of time to check the rest, so please have a loot at it when you get
time

Hi All ...
I was involved when Rakesh started what was originally the "SE 11 food co-op" which then gravitated around Brixton and became
"Transition Town Brixton food co-op" ... which I have been pretty much organising for the last few months ...
so I know how it all works allready !
but I would come to the meeting on Monday anyway to meet the other members if enough of you are coming ?
Not many people have placed their orders yet ?? ... the earlier the better so that others have more time to come in on the Items to make up the quantities ... makes it more "co-operative" !
BTW ... I count NINE ( ! ) types of pasta ! which could probably be rationalised down to a smaller choice !
and make it more likely to be fullfilled !
Anyways ... hope to meet you all on Monday ... early evening ?
cheers ... Charles

Hi All
I am back from Croatia
Who is up for placing an order?
The new catalogue is out, so I suggest you download it and place
orders in the spreadsheet accordingly.
Ideally we should try and meet to discuss the order, but I am very
short on available time, so we will have to do it virtually for now.
Thanks
Rakesh

Can you please check your orders against the new catalogue. I have checked
my order and had to delete a few things as the product is no longer
available or no longer at the sale price (e.g. rice dream). I have
highlighted the items I have checked.
From experience I have to say that taking one item out of 6 or 12 is
unlikely to get filled unless we get a huge influx of people into the coop
(which given I seem to be the only person promoting it and given my
workload is very unlikely). I would suggest you cut down the number of
items you have placed in the order and take larger quantities, which will
give you a higher chance of someone else wanting the remaining items.
I put 25kg of rolled oatflakes, as it will work out much cheaper and
reduces the amount of packaging, etc. So you may wish to delete your 500g
packets. If we dont get enough people wanting jumbo oatflakes, we can go
down to 5kg. If you calculate the cost per kg you will see 12x500g is the
most expensive option at £1.57 per kg, compared with 88p per kg if we get
25kg or £1.18 for 5kg
12x500g Rolled Oatflakes - UK 1.57 6x1kg Rolled Oatflakes - UK 1.48
25kg Rolled Oatflakes - UK 0.88 5kg Rolled Oatflakes - UK 1.18
Looking at some of the other items on your list. I notice you have black
rice listed twice (2.5kg and 6x500g). Again the 2.5kg is cheaper and less
packaging than the 6x500g packets. My wife ordered a 3 litre tub of brown
tahini previously, which I doubt I will ever get through, so if anyone
wants some tahini, I can happily share some of it.
I am in no hurry to place the order, so I am not going to spend much more
time asking people to add to the order. Most likely I am only here till
early December after which I will most likely go away for 2 or 3 months. So
I will be more motivated to place an order in Feb/March next year, when I
get back. If you want to place an order before I go, please add to the list
or ask us for help if you don't understand how to,
Thanks
Rakesh

But if you edit the online version for now I can merge them manually until we get everyone up to speed.
another thing that came up was someone who will place a decent size of order won't have money till 25th, so is everyone okay to wait and place the order on 28th and get it on 30th?

dear all
I haven't placed an order yet but i know what I want. Can someone tell me
where the spreadsheet is so I can do this? Doesn't have to be Rakesh,
anyone who knows, to decentralise a bit and give the fellow a break!
love and peace all

If we can have all orders in and payments by 25th, so we can place order on 28th.
If you need help understanding the spreadsheet then feel free to email the group (Charles and Ariel are both experts at this now).
I am building a forest garden all week in Wembley, so won't have much email access.
