Hi Hasina. Thanks for putting this together - I'm happy to approve the microgrant for this. I note that the cake will probably cost somewhat less than you expect, but the nibbles will probably cost more (since they'll probably have to be provided by the pub), but hopefully it will all balance out within the £150 budget. Thanks. [[User:Mike Peel|Mike Peel]] ([[User talk:Mike Peel|talk]]) 19:54, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Hasina. Thanks for putting this together - I'm happy to approve the microgrant for this. I note that the cake will probably cost somewhat less than you expect, but the nibbles will probably cost more (since they'll probably have to be provided by the pub), but hopefully it will all balance out within the £150 budget.
