Minutes of the 108th Annual General Meeting of the Manchester Pickwick Club held at the Moorside Social Club on 15th April, 2014
The meeting was opened at 8.05 p.m. with Jack Hopkins in the chair and Ben Allen as vice-chairman. The meeting commenced with a recommendation that Dodson be invited to contribute to the fines box at the next meeting for failing to attend the meeting and leaving Mivins to collect subscriptions and try to explain the fiction which was the balance sheet.
A note from Dodson announced that in accordance with the usual practise, the AGM would be a free evening and suggested that if Snodgrass was present, he should be sent home.
The Secretary’s report outlined attendance records and referred to the loss during the year of Alfred Jingle who had been an excellent member; his place and character had been taken by his son.
