Apologies Andrew, Claire

1. The meeting is finally opened at 3.15. We decide despite the rain we shall still punt to Grantchester, so we head to Scudamore's. Martin is the first to punt.
   


2. It is noted that nobody is playing poohsticks on poohsticks bridge. Disgraceful!!
   


3. A duck starts following us. It is immediately proposed that we censure the duck for stalking us F:2 A:2 Ab:0 (Christopher Robin later decides against) - Failed.
   Rosie then proposes that we commend the duck for trying to join one of our meetings F:3 A:1 Ab:0 - Passed
   The duck then is joined by two others and 10 ducklings, we feed the ducks our food. For it's clear devotion and for spreading pooh to others we decide that the duck should be an honourary member F: 3 A: 1 Ab:0.
   We then run out of food and the other ducks leave.
   


4. Rosie takes over punting and promptly starts attack the new honourary member with the pole. We vote to censure her F: 2 A: 2 Ab: 0 (Christopher Robin later decides for) - passed.
   


5. The duck is once again joined by another. Owen offers to let the duck minute. We vote to censure him and tell him not to tease the ducks F: 3 A: 0 Ab: 1
   Meanwhile Rosie gets tangled in a tree.
   


6. Debbie has chocolate. We don't share it with the ducks though.
   


7. The duck boards the punt and promptly leaves again. "Duck overboard!!!"
   


8. Rosie suggest spit roasting the honourary members. High treason is still a hangable offence.
   


9. Debbie's hiding.
   


10. We appear to be going backwards. Rosie's OK at stearing it's just going in the right direction! "WATCH THE TREE!!!"
    


11. Juggling Iain fell in hear.
    


12. Apparently the juggler's don't juggle punts.
    


13. Playing chicken with trees. Rosie attempts it and gets stuck in the tree.
    


14. Duck adoption agencies
    


15. "Aaah, it's stuck" - Rosie
    "No it's not" - Rosie
    


16. Martin attacks Owen with the pole
    


17. The man in the canoe is not a happy chappy
    


18. It's not a bottomless river
    


19. The blind corner fails the eye test we set it
    


20. A duckling attacks Debbie whilst a swan tries to take the minutes. They're scheming against us!!
    


21. "Just say when" - Rosie
    "When" - Owen
    


22. It's starts raining. Debbie needs 2 umbrellas and a coat
    


23. We decide being in a punt during a thunder storm is not the best idea. Rosie's punting making her the highest point. If we touch the water we could electricute all the ducks F: 0 A: 0 Ab: 1 - Abstained
    


24. Jenny phones, she won't meet us as it's raining.
    


25. Another agressive swan. Nevermind, we have an umbrella to protect us. The swan however finds another punt and goes to attack them instead.
    


26. The water.
    


27. Owen takes over punting and successfully splashes everybody except Martin who's hiding under a cusion.
    


28. Straight lines. It would be good if we went in one.

30. "It's a bit sticky and I've got to clean it" - Jenny

32. Jenny isn't Andrew.
    


33. Andrew might have difficulty putting the kettle on as he's not here.
    


34. Jenny wore 3 shoes while she was at home. We question her about the number of feet she has.
