Findrack electricity/finances

Always best viewed directly at http://deesidesquashracquetballclub.blogspot.com/

I've received the latest electricity bill for the quarter to December and although it's higher than the same time last year, it's not much more than the previous quarter at £166.46. Fuel costs have risen dramatically over the last couple of years, but our total annual cost of electricity for the whole of 2012 was £456, which compared with £425 the previous year, so it's been a fairly modest increase that we've had to bear.

I've now paid this bill, which takes the funds in hand down to just £63, which is probably about the amount we have consumed since the latest bill was made up (to 21st December), so we now need to consider raising more cash.

If all the current users are prepared to stump up another £50 per head, this will generate sufficient cash to cover the electricity costs for another 12 months approx. (but not anything else). Please confirm - or otherwise - that you are prepared to continue to pay this. (The last cash call was back in June, 2012).

If we are to continue at Findrack, it was recently suggested that perhaps we might put an extra heater or two in. This would probably cost an additional £50 per head or so. Before approaching Andrew for permission to do this, could we please have some feedback on whether everyone would be prepared to pay for this?

Here's the latest bill, fyi:
