28. on 1 January 2014 the positive balance on mhml’s “leaseholders’ reserve account” with lloyds Bank no: 24411268 stood at £92,472.13. the leaseholders were therefore in a good position to finance most of the expected project cost of £105,019.
A CONSIDERED RESPONSE: “MOST OF” IS NOT “ALL OF” AND LEAVES MINUS ZERO IN RESERVES SO THAT’S A TYPICAL HILLGARTHISM.

30. in fairness there were three transactions totalling £5,571 in the course of 2014 whereby money was transferred the other way – in other words from mhml’s Priceplan Xs account into the reserve account. however it is clear that in the course of 2014 a net sum of £96,647 was paid out of the reserve account into mhml’s Priceplan Xs account.
