Message from Marian: Unfortunately, I have been unable been unable to establish a separate bank account as my project is not 'official' and I don't have a committee or constitution etc. However, to allay anyone's fears, I will scan the statements to the website after the project has closed. I would like to acknowledge the assistance of James McInstosh, manager of Hoyts movie theatre, Barbara Henderson, manager of Village Rialto movie theatre and Bede Stevens, Marketing Dept for Buena vista International (NZ). I would also like to thank Melissa Booth at 3 Foot 6 studio in Wellington for listening this afternoon.
