I have suggested to our core team that we spend down our pot before it gets absorbed into central funds, they’re less cynical than me and don’t believe we’ll lose it

I'd like to transfer the contents of our entire pot to the junior event at the same venue which is currently waiting for fundraising.

I can't do that, but I can't justify spending the mass of money we've got on cakes and signage.

I can't spend it on batteries for the PA, as one of our parkruners runs the battery shop in town and won't let us pay him!

It's like that film, "Brewster's Millions"!
