With great regret, we have closed the temple because our lease ran out and the landlord wanted the building back for redevelopment. We are now meeting in rented rooms.

Dear Maharaja and Prabhus,

Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

This letter is to confirm that the amount of £9246.82 was laxmi given [sic] to ISKCON Scotland from Liverpool.

We are currently in the process of selling the house in Mentmore Crescent which was donated to Liverpool. We expect to gain around £13,500 from this sale.

When circumstances warrant its investment in Liverpool then this will be made available from the Scottish account.

Your servant,

Prabhpada Vani das

Titiksu and Chakra-nadi, who came to Liverpool in 1988 and have been preaching here for 11 years, left in July '99 to move to Bhaktivedanta Manor. Management of the temple has been passed onto ISKCON Scotland. Read Titiksu's leaving letter here.
