Thanks for a Fantastic 18 Months of All Minus One
A special thanks to the members, and a friendly reminder to join up.
Dear members’ and supporters of All Minus One,
Thanks for making this year a great one. It has been 1 and a half years since starting and we have had some fantastic events.
18 Months of Events
For those of you that are new around here, here is a recap of our events for the last 18 months.
June 2022 - we were joined by Claire Lehmann for a first ever event to talk about panics and persecutions.
July 2022 - we were joined by Dr Bella to talk about public art.
August 2022: we were joined by Randell Evans “Randy” to talk about comedy.
September 2022: we were joined by Fred Pawle to talk about the life of Bill Leake.
October 2022: we were joined by Gigi Foster.
November 2022: was just a bit of a half-year in review.
December 2022: was the Christmas picnic.
This year past we also had some great events. Some highlights include the architecture debate, the Substack series, and growing up in oppressive cultures.
The Move to Substack
Earlier this year we had to move to Substack. Not all the people that were members prior to the move have re-signed up. A big thank you to all that have followed the move, but if you are receiving this and are not a member (you will know this because you can’t view the end of this email with the details of the upcoming events) please use the link below to join (or join again)!
The Plan for Next Year
I am going to trial having an alternating schedule of events with one month having a weekend event followed by a weeknight event to give the maximum chance for people to participate.
I will send out the calendar for January to April at the start of the year. In May we will have a social gathering with a chance to review how it’s working. I will then send out the calendar for June to December based on people’s views (but also my own limitations).
The indictive calendar will be as follows:
January: Australia Day Party
February: Third Thursday Night discussion with guests on “How to know what is True in a Post-Truth world?”
March: Third weekend of the month activity/discussion topic
April: Third Thursday Night discussion with guests on “Forming Families and Raising Children”
May: Third weekend of the month activity and discussion of the last few months and how it is working
