Tim G and Sam K left (projecting was apparently more important)

6. AOB
(brace yourself!)

Max H:
- The torch for P2 is broken
- The compressor was kept on after the last show, and hence came on once both projectors had stopped running and made a lot of noise. Reminder to everyone to switch it off after use.

Fergus C:
- Touch panel on Doremi should be closed as backlight stays on otherwise and would be expensive to replace if it blew!
- Once used, CDs should go back into their holders, especially those that have specific cases.
- Water (in cups) being left at the winding bench is not a sensible place to leave them. And in general, tidy up in the proj box!
- Could people in the proj box not talk as loudly since it is really noticeable, especially during quiet scenes

Andy M:
- Could people place aluminium cans in the recycling bin and not leave them in the proj box/office (in a similar vein to Fergus’ last point)

Meeting Ended at 18:51
