Apologies: Jenny, Rosie, Roz, Jon

1. Meeting opened.
   


2. Alison just loves Roz trying to kill Owen with a knife.
   


3. I’m husting for Green and Black’s mint chocolate, because Rosy got to the Maya Gold first. Don’t go into marketing, Rachel.
   


4. We all think Rachel said this week (except Rachel and Martin).
   


5. We’re not going to let the wind join, not even if it blows a pound into Neil’s hand, because it’s not a member of the University and we don’t want to support it because it’d be a nuisance at meetings.
   


6. Votes to commend Rosy for her splendid accuracy. Passed
   


7. Votes to censure Rosy for scalding a member of the society. Passed
   


8. Rosy has a glass Neil can put water in, but he may not drink it. Passed
   


9. Votes to commend Owen for having photographs. Passed
   


10. Votes to censure Owen for boasting about the above. Passed
    


11. Neil’s actually a vampire.
    


12. "Gosh Roz looks evil!". Neil
    


13. Votes to throw the next Poohsticks photographer into the water so that we can see everyone’s face on the photos. Passed
    


14. Alison is a bad woman. Failed
    


15. Minutes of the Pasta meeting at the end of last term are read.
    


16. Neil is officially Society Poohsticks Photographer. Passed
    


17. Votes to censure the Coastguard for not bringing the testaments. Passed
    


18. Would we eat green and black chocolate? It would depend how hungry we were.

20. Anyone who meets, anywhere on the planet, is now under the control of Owen. Failed

22. It’s definitely not an R. Passed
    


23. Votes to censure Ben for lying to the Society. Passed
    


24. Ben arrives. The tone of the meeting falls about four octaves.
    


25. Votes to write to the chancellor asking him to give Ecstatic an honorary degree. Failed
    


26. Minutes of the meeting on 22.3.03 are read.
    


27. We should arm the minute writer to prevent the minutes from being hijacked.
    


28. Ben reminisces about jokes about Martin’s shirts. But neither of them can remember what they are. (Or at least if Martin can he’s not admitting it.)
    


29. "Tea, Tea, Tea." Everyone to Rosy.
    


30. Pooh Levy is £1 per body, not £1 per head. (Double-headed Dave only paid once, so it must be true.)
    


31. The writers of begging spam: masters of the short story form.
    


32. No homoskedasticity here. What people do in the privacy of their own rooms is up to them.
    


33. Owen’s long word.
    


34. Floccinaucinihilipilification
    


35. The 11th Commandment: Thou shalt not, without permission, cover thy neighbour’s tissue in snot.
    


36. Votes to write to Rowan Williams and tell him about the above. Dunstan will do it, but will need to ask his mother the appropriate form of address first.
    


37. Dunstan’s parents do things while he’s not looking. This is probably just as well.
    


38. Alison’s just blinding herself looking at Neil.

    2. Green and Black’s Maya Gold: 1

48. Two characters would make a very short story. "in" perhaps, or "at".
    


49. Ben thinks Rosy and Dunstan have the same eyes, and are perhaps related (not that I know of).
    


50. Despite this:
    


51. Rosy and Dunstan should get married and have children. Passed (Well, if they had two heads or twelve fingers, we could then assume he was right)

61. On the entire planet. The future of humanity is in SERIOUS TROUBLE.
    


62. Easter’s inside Marks and Spencer’s. So the "It’s Easter, eating chocolate doesn’t count" excuse doesn’t work elsewhere.
    


63. Reading: Bad Sir Brian Botany: Sir Brian- Ben, Narration- Rachel, Villagers- everyone else.
    


64. Independent crumpet inspection. Ben will conduct an independent inspection of American crumpet(s).
