Hiya  Gareth,
First of all, thanks to you for copying out the Funding Proposal and
e-mailing it to me.
Unfortunately not only has Access Space has decided to install  Debian
but I am unfamiliar with it and its layout.(The computers wouldn't
allow me to log in at all till, I changed my password, more palaver.)
I have limited time today, as I am going away for almost a fortnight,
tomorrow and therefor did not give this the attention I think it
requires.
I have had a frustrating afternoon and have been unable to get any
further work done on this matter.
I checked out the application forms and realised it was almost
identical to the one you printed out the first time we met up at to
discuss the ideas for the Feasibility Study.
I stared at it till, in confusion and could not find any way I could
alter the bits to make it fit into the Feasibility Study I soo wished
to complete.

Thanks for sending it to me but I have decided to hand in the project
without including either an abstract application form filled in or a
letter of application, written by me.(Or any member of B.I.T.fix.I.T.)
This will mean I will not get the accreditation I had hoped to
achieve.(I have filled all the worksheets best I could, given the
information we discussed at the two meeting at your house)
I am trying to pull together a fortnights work in a few days and I
cannot achieve this.(So I am not going to stress my self out, trying
to achieve this!)
This, Feasibility Study Project I think really needs a lot more work
and thought and related research that We should put in as a team
effort.
If anyone wants to contribute and include the rewritten/overhauled
funding application, or a letter of application,Hannah at Access Space
will have my folder till it gets handed in a weeks time Wednesday
(morning) 9th July.
Many thanks for you wonderful help and support over this issue.
Doing the course has helped me understand how the funding process work
and what is required to fill in funding application form.
I am only now coming to terms with the enormity of the task when it
comes to converting all this knowledge to the task at hand.I will
admit this has not been easy and I am still confused!!!
I do not have the time to fulfill all that is required of me in the
short time I have left.
I will continue pursuing what needs to be done on my return, when I
get my work folder returned and I have the time to put into continuing
this research.
I still think this should be a team effort...
I also think that the tenancy issues out to be resolved as soon as possible.
I would hate to think I have done all this work for a project that may
never come to fruition.
I am sorry if this looks as if I am venting frustration, but I am
unhappy about how things have been left unresolved.
This is not aimed at either of you Gareth or Naomi.
I should have stayed on top of this a bit more.I didn't expect it to
be so time consuming.
Maybe I should not have been so affected by the Burngreave Cafe notice
board conversation,(That's why I don't subscribe to notice
board/online community networks!!!)I only interpret individuals
complaining about how things have been left undone!!!
I tried writing this to the notice board but I don't seem to be able
to send it so I sent it to you !!!
Reka,

P.S -  Please send an edited version of this to the notice board.
 I just want to make my frustrations heard!!!!
