I can hardly call Smileys opinions SILLY, he was merely raising questions and hoping for an honest response from the NEW COMMITTEE. Was their in-fighting......??? I dont think so as stated airing opinions whats wrong with that... I see it as if the committee dont like it then they will lock it

New Committee rules I guess...

Kaz

Fine what ever you say!

I apologise

Kaz

Your point being?, That attitude seriously Irks me.

If it wasnt for us lot North of the border there wouldent even be enough members left in this club to keep it going, I've seen as much trouble South of the border than I have up here, I seem to remember a whole region leaving SIDC at one point a while back, so please don't give me that bulls**** Karyn.

Well done Phil

Sorry but its funny when things kick off on the forum theres alway someone north of the border stiring......

I am Karyn and I am outta of here!

Hmmmm Chris!

Ok one day maybe just one day you mght be FIRED!

Maybe you will be negative about things!

Well kaz, thank you for your work over the last few years well done give your self a pat on the back no need for the negativity everyone had a chance to sound off...as Lord Sugar would say your fired don't take it to heart.

Chris...

Rob I wanted to post in General because most of the X members I know look in here! as they are now just forum members now.

I wanted to say my piece thats all, you all said your peice when you all wanted a re shuffle etc etc

Whats done is done and I wish all new committee members good luck!

Kaz

The former Chairman was the one that told me that the vote would be split 3 ways!!!

I have accepted it hence why I am saying goodbye..

As for handing over duties...............NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME YET AND THE NEW MEMBERSHIP SECRETARIES HAVENT EVEN BEEN ON YET!!!!

Everything is in the boxs ready to be collected!!

Kaz

Firstly I’d like to pass on my congratulations to Rob (Sti Pretender) on becoming the new club Chairman. I also like to offer my congratulations to Glyn and Dale for taking the role of Membership Secretary, amongst others!!! Commiserations to Kim who I’m sure is very disappointed not to be taking the club on as Chairperson.

I am not going to sit here and pretend I’m happy about the way the club has gone about things!! To start with, putting it politely, I am really hacked off that the role of Membership Secretary has been seemingly pulled from under my feet. Unlike the Chairman who wanted to stand down along with the Treasurer, and Club Secretary, Event co-ordinator, Regional organiser co-ordinator etc, I was happy to continue in my role as I have done for the last 6 years!! As I have said before, not content with just having one role each on the committee, Glyn and Dale have managed to secure 3, that of Membership secretary, Club secretary and Regional organiser co-ordinator. How this is a fair system when it comes to club decisions is beyond me! Do they vote 3 times for things or 3 times each or maybe only twice? Maybe it should be only once as they have been considered as one person for the vote against me despite me being told at the beginning that the vote would be split 3 ways and they would need to secure more than 66% to win. Sadly this was not spelt out in the voting and now closed, they have just claimed the victory and even changed the membership forum to show their names as opposed to mine, it’s a shame that, at the point of writing this, they haven’t even been online yet since taking over!!! Quite how the hell they can answer any questions when they don’t even know what the role involves!! I guess that was just to smack me in the face and say “Stuff you Kaz, We won!!” A tactful changeover, or should that be takeover, would have been a little more diplomatic but I guess that’s not your way!!!

Call it sour grapes if you like, yes you’re right it is but as I said I’m not going to hide the fact that I’m unhappy about the way things have been conducted and the fact that the majority of the major roles are now held north of the border by fewer people!! Maybe you should rename the club “Scottish Impreza Drivers Club”

As a national club we attended an enormous amount of shows, sadly I feel that major events like Japfest, Rallyday, etc will go by the wayside in favour of northern shows and southern events will no longer be attended by the SIDC. I suspect our new committee members are unlikely to be seen driving all the way down from Scotland to attend! Tell me if I’m wrong!!

Anyway, I would like to thank all of the 43% of voters that chose me to continue in the role. I am extremely grateful for your support and kind words. Sadly I am no longer your Membership Secretary and will have no further roll to play in any future of the SIDC. I have no axe to grind with Glyn or Dale, I’m sure they’ll do a great job despite I think underestimating the amount of work involved!!

I’m sure plenty of you will have much to say about this post but to be quite frank, I couldn’t care less. I am disgusted in the manner with which this takeover has been organised. Some will say that it was a democratic decision, mmm 2 against 1, I’d hardly call that democratic!! Sour grapes, yep, plenty!!

The whole thing stinks!

Just to make you aware, there is a Transit load of items that need picking up from Cornwall, quickly!!!!

Best wishes to you all,

Your ex-membership secretary

Kaz xx

hmmmm Glad I dont live in Oxfordshire anymore

Hope they find the rogues and chop their hands off

Kaz

Kaz

Ahh know this too well, I have a 11 month old Tamaskan Pup who likes to investigate any drawer or cupboard that is open..... Considering I am on a few meds my tabs are now in a top cabinet in the bathroom as I could just see Otto being nosey in my drawers and pulling them out!! the monkey he is lol

So glad your Pup is ok

Kaz

Congratulations to you all

Well done

Kaz

Yep Kynance Cove is lovely, especially when you sit on the edge of the cliffs watching the basking sharks

Well next time ya down give us a shout

As for the Stone Henge A303 yep its a dodgy road I know but its so much nicer lol

Kaz

Oh yeah, forgot you moved down that way - tis nice down there isn't it!

Spent most of my time down at Keynance Cove - Cracking little walk down to the cafe at the bottom of the cliffs!

It is a lot nicer but it means going up the A303 - I used to live just off it (by Eagle Cross before you get to Ilminster) and I swear that stretch of road is cursed - far too many needless fatal smashes along there for my liking!

Ey up guys! Thought I would pop on and say hello from Cornwall! I'm parked outside the lighthouse on The Lizard Peninsula making my scoob the most southerly in the UK! He he!

LOADS of scoobs down here, particularly Helston - quite a few with SIDC stickers too!

Should be back in time for the meet but if not, spare a thought for me stuck at 2mph along the M5!

Should go the Stone henge road ;-) so much nicer ;-)

Could have come and said Hello

The Lizard is my fav place I go there every week to walk the dog along the cliffs

Kaz

Yep the SIDC Logo is protected!!

Big D :lol:

There had to be one huh!!!!

Are you talking about private messages or pre menstrual syndrome

Come on Guys

It will be nice to get a bit more sponsorship guys, this is for a good cause and I'm sure most of you will know someone somewhere whether its a member of the family or a friend who will have or have had Cancer

I lost a very very dear friend in March who battled Cancer for a year and 4 months unfortunately he wasnt one of the lucky ones to recover, but if researched then maybe just maybe we wont loose a loved one or a friend as some day in the furture they may find a cure. We can all live in hope.

Well what can I say but a huge big Thank you to you all for attending

Kim Thank you so so much for all your help, as you know your help was much appreciated with all whats going on right now

As stated previously the numbers were low this year!! I was a little concerned as to what the evening would turn out like, (as Kim knows I wasnt looking forward to it) however one part of the evening I sat back and watched you all and you all had smiles on your faces and chatting to each other, dancing and having a great time, I knew then that the evening was going to be a blast and I started to relax a little.

The photographer was great too, Thanks to Eric (Acclaim Photography) Dont forget to visit his website and look at the rest of the Pics, I think you all have the password!! and website here it is if you want reminding www.acclaimphoto.co.uk

Thanks to BigD for popping in, in full RAF Uniform.... some of the Ladies eyes lit up as you entered the room!!

Dave and I had a fab time and well worth the 5hr drive up to our old stomping ground!!! lol even tho we weren't in the Scoob!!!!

The hotel was great and hope you all took full advantage of the facilities.

Lets hope the 2010 we will have a few more attendees

for those that didnt come you missed out on a cracking night

I think the highlight of the evening was our very own TV celeb doing Grease Lightning........ Kim is that on You Tube yet? lol

Thanks again to everyone that attended its you guys that made a smashing night

We finally arrived home safely in Cornwall very tired lol but chuffed to read all your great reports
