And it looks as if there were just as many of them! Diocesan audit on Thursday Straight back from Cambridge Wednesday night into the rigours of our four-yearly Diocesan Audit on Thursday. We were at it most of the day, as every aspect of our finances and book-keeping was trawled over. But the good news is that we received a very clean bill of health. Many thanks to Denise and Syd, our excellent book-keepers and Gift Aid organisers, and to Paula and Marian, the other members of the Finance Committee, who keep an eye on the money, month in and month out. Next Audit will be 2018.
