some of the older members of this region and various clubs will know Bob so passing on this sad news copied from bbs forum I am really upset to have to tell you that Bob died in the early hours of this morning. Bob as many of you know was one of the original scooby owners and his last scoob was a Wr1. He often spent as much time at Tileys as one of the staff and was a true gent. He had suffered with cancer and kidney failure for a few years. He was only 61. I am sure that all of your thoughts will be with his partner Tricia who will always be known as Bob's Dragon.

really JD ,its just sws under sidc umbrella now, which is something they didnt want to be associated with a few years ago when they broke away.and whats happened since , sws have become a small club ,when ed and jaqs were running it they rivalled the esc for members/cars ed and jaqs built this section up twice when most would have quit.and i cant see anyone with the same commitment,backing,even coming close to what they done .

well i guess that kills off s/west region altogether .sorry to hear you going ed ,its been good times even if i didnt come to as many meets ,was always a good laugh.im sure your witty humour will be missed by all. you know where to find me if im at a show you to bailey sure i'll bump into you at some show with your lense out :icon_salut:

going by his last post , id say never, see below if you missed it Well What can I say - I am jacking this in...........Walked into a highly political environment - undermined from below and no support from above........very little training and no support or guidance. This fact was recognised by one set of upper management however nothing done by direct management. Worked my backside off for the last 5 months and tried to prove that I can do the job I am now written off sick with DEPRESSION so bang goes my Probation period plus £42k a year! - and I didnt even get that when I was seriously ill 4 years ago!. So far in January 2011 - Jacqui and I split for a time , my lottery numbers came up however as I forgot my ticket I did lucky dips instead thus losing out on £4 Million plus all the hassle I had at work it has been a crap start to the year - oh yeah bloomin car now playing up!!!!!!!!. So for Feb its looking for another job - this time a pitance paying one with no responsibility so probably putting the car on Fleabay and let someone have it for 99p!!!!! - oh yeah its 4:40am and now suffering from insomnia. Anyone around from the good old days how ya doing? well thats my gossip! cheers Ed

who are you??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

que tumbleweeds

well i'll put my opinion in ,first off south africa done a good job of hosting it and the stadiums were top class ,esp the durban one which is basically now redundent unless they can get the local rugby team to transfer across, security was second to non with only the minor blip here and there . but since the finish all security have been made redundent . as for the football i think it was appalling .if half the teams put the effort in that bafana bafana put in then it might have been worth watching . France pathetic ,england just plain awful . italy nuf said. it.ll be a while before i put on a england shirt again . to embaressed to wear it > so will be wearing my fake bafana bafana one atleast they showed spirit. felt for those fans who saved and payed to stay out there in the vain hope we would get somewhere . atleast i had family and friends to stay with . needless to say i wont be going to brasil

Just popped in to say missingu all ......... Not having a great time watch England beat slovinia great atmoshere. Just driven 2000 ks to capetown .awsome views going up themountain in the mornin. Not seen to many scoobs. Anyway see you soon well july meet prob. Be good
