jamie_wood Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Hi Guys n' Gals Long time since I have managed to get on here. As some of you might know I have been stuck out in foreign waters for what seem like eternity!! I think it was February the last time I was able to log on[sn] Anyway...due to my change in work commitments over the past six months or so, and also an ever increasingly hectic personal life, I have decided that its best for myself and the club that I stand down and let someone else take over as the Central R.O. I have neglected the position since the start of the year and its simply isn't fair to not give 100% to the club when it needs it. I know that some folk look for more events and meetings than there have been of late and I dont want to be the one that stops the progress of the club in this area. I was lucky enough to have Paul Clark (PaulC555) help me out by organising a meeting this week and has also taken on all responsibilities of the R.B Relay between now and the 8th of May. He has already done much more than I have been able to do in the past couple of months while I was away[:$] Thanks Paul[] Paul will be standing in as R.O for the Central region just now and you will all be informed when he is officially appointed the position by the committee in the coming week or so. I hope you will all welcome him with the same enthusiasm I received back in the start of 2005 when I was lucky enough to get the position. It has been good fun over the past year or so and although the Central meets might not be the most active by not going bowling, karting etc, I would like to think that we always have a good turn out and everyone gets on well. There have never been and meets that have turned sour and I have to say that it was always a pleasure to get everyone together for the "banter". Im not going to disappear from the forums all together, I just wont be on as much as I used to be. There are already more new user names on the scottish section than I would care to count, so I'm not sure how many would know me anyway[] I will keep you all informed with the progress of my car ownership and future plans. For now the only wheels I have are my mountain bike!! And if Im good I get the wife's Jeep to go on longer journeys[] There are no immediate plans to replace the old Buggy with another Scooby in 2006. We are on the hunt for a bigger place out in the sticks this year so I can fill a garage with toys and other "boys stuff". I hope that by this time next year I will be back with a battered old MY93 with a tweed interior and 16" alloys...if Im lucky that is!! Anyway...I would just like to say thanks to all that supported me over the past while, especially Dougster for his help, Spooks, Scoobay, Billyboy and John S for being part of the team.Wilky and Gumball for ....being Wilky and Gumball, also the Squirrel for being such a good Video rental man..the list could go on........................ Its been a pleasure[ip] So long everyone[au]
