Wanted an RS - Page 2

Woof25 · 30th May 2013, 10:29

Not absolutely sure guys but I think as members of the region we do get a vote as to the different candidates so hopefully get the RS we want.
Can I take this opportunity to remind people of Bob,s valiant attempts to get meets going in the city on an all points basis the first will be on July 21st at the Leisure Complex Chaplin Square N12 0GL at midday there are 4 different eateries on the site ranging from burgers to mexican food for your delictatation.

There is also a small group looking at viability of having nano meets such as members in midlands and north do, what we need to identify are site where two day events or even one day ones could be held so members can assist each other in maintaining our wonderful cars without breaking the bank !!!

So dont be shy if you know of such sites you can either pm me or Mr Shed with the info and we will try to work out how we might make it actually work

Thanks again to Petetourer for his sterling work managing two regions & a expectant father to boot !!!

Dont give up yet Vinnie I do believe that there are other candidates,But what may be holding you back I dont know mind you and that is that you are only prepare to do two venues The Frog and Wicket and at the Star. I was willing to do the Frog but an RS is required to get more involved but dont give up hope there is still a chance

Even though I am out of the country, my membership and home address is where my V6 lives and I for one would support a vote for Flying Banana. I have met the man, know his style and his abilities. He is a friendly chap and speaks his mind. He may not want the job? Should that be the case, I will just say that as I have not had the pleasure yet of meeting the other candidates, I wish them all the best. We are fortunate to have people who are willing to give up their free time and who are willing to do the job as R.S for nothing.

I think who ever takes on the task has a lot to deal with and will need the help of the rest of us if it is to become a vibrant active region again.

I think it is possible to do with a sort of small committe to work on the london issues, I know its a nightmare for some to get to meets which is why we are working on idea of regular meet in north south and west as the east is fairly well covered by the meeting held at Halfway House, which I know is in Essex but still within the 50 mile radius most members seem to work on.

Just the thoughts of a small dog

Hi Phil it is purely voluntary and does take that up a lot of time it may have helped if London had its own RS as it has been suggested if there is more the one member in the frame members will have a vote on who

Woof25 · 30th May 2013, 10:54

Your right phil, Bob would be a good candidate even though it would cut down on his roaming !!!

seriously though I,m sure he would do an excellent job but would need a backup team to help figure out how we resolve the problem of london meets, which we know are a very thorny issue indeed

Hope you are both ok

I am the guilty party derek who suggested london might need its own RS and if bob decided to stand for London Iwould vote for him as would many others I,m sure he is very commited to trying to restabilish the meetings in the city and I am happy to help in ayway I can

I agree with you all the way Mike

I would be happy to be RS for London. However it is in the laps of the moderators.
Many thanks for the votes.

FIRST LONDON MEET 21st JULY. See the events page for further details.

Always a pleasure bob, perhaps because of the unique problems London presents Reebs and the other moderators will consider the option of making london a special case and if it cant be a region in itself then allow us to have a london secretary instead we would all vote for Bob who works constantly for the forum without any reward, so lets acknowledge his efforts by making him the first London Secretary.
