Minutes of Previous Meeting
These were approved and signed.

Matters Arising
John Winson had won the monthly share competition with his share S Daniels whose price had risen by 49%.
John Winson and David Pankhurst had investigated moving the dealing account to an internet based provider and were recommending we move to Comdirect, a subsidiary of Commerzbank. Barclays, our present dealer would charge £15 per share to transfer our holdings to the new dealer, but Comdirect would refund us a maximum of £100 of these charges. It was agreed we would use Comdirect for our new dealings and John and David would decide which of our current holdings would be transferred to this account.

Treasurers Report
The treasurer reported that we had £1850 available for investment.

Share Monitors' Reports
Our holdings were reviewed and it was decided not to sell any of our holdings but we would re-examine BAe Systems at the next meeting. It was also decided to investigate alternative Fidelity Investment Trusts with a view to transferring our European holding to one.

Dealers Report
We had sold our holdings in Colt and Ferraris and had bought Cadbury Schweppes. The details of these transactions are as follows:
Colt sold at £0.27p/share, total proceeds = £287.06
Ferraris sold at £1.07/share, total proceeds = £173.03
Cadbury Schweppes bought at £4.2345/share, total cost = £817.57

Future Investments
The following shares were put forward for consideration:

Tesco (Dacre, Bonnie & Brenda)
Propan Homes (John Winson)
BP or Shell (Dacre)
PHS (Gwilys)
Vodaphone (Bruce)
Capita (Bonnie)

It was decided to purchase two shares @ £700, plus dealing charges, and the following were chosen:
Propan Homes
Capita


Any Other Business
Marion proposed that we have our January social meeting at Knights in Exmouth. This was agreed with Friday 10 January 2003 as the preferred date. She would confirm the booking with Knights.
