I have read all this thread and I must have missed something.

I have been a member of this club for over 10 years and this is the best club I have ever had the pleasure of being part of.

At the meetings if I notice a new member or someone lets on to me then I would gladly welcome you to the club. You obviously were close to hear my stories but am I that loud :bravo :shock . You should have said hi or just jumped up and down like some to get attention. the weather wasn't great too so the banter in the car park was far less than a sunny warm evening.............I was in a Porsche T Shirt which always attracts the Pi55 takers but hey ho I can take it but also I was freezing my knackers off :naughty

It is true that I do arrange runs out at weekends and you would be always welcome to join us but in order to do this there are 3 requirements
1. you turn up
2. you are happy to discuss cars, the bits that fell off recently, the weather and fish & Chips
3. you take the pi55 when required of others and happy for this in return :D .

I am sure once you get to know the members you will see that this is the most diverse bunch you will meet but all are sincere in the banter :D and the events we arrange will make you smile................surely that is why you bought a Lotus :bravo

PM me or call me on 07415 877 573 and I will gladly speak to you and convince you to come on one of out runs out you will love it. You must come to the next meeting and actually come in so we can see if your garden is suitable for the next summer BBQ.............( NYLOC joke )

I would add that even after 10 years some still don't know my name and call me Baldy...............why is this :halo

PM me, call me (don't miss the sunny runs out) or see you at the next meeting in your purple :lol elise :bravo

:bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow

Thanks for the kind reply. My intention was never to ruffle a few feathers but I suppose that's inevitable really when you say about a negative experience of something you all speak highly of. And as such I don't dissagree or challenge whether it's a good club with good people, I merely gave my experience to highlight some potential issues. As responders have said, I may have needed to be more forward and deliberately pushed myself into conversations more or catch someone not talking with others to ask questions.

I was stood with you when talking and watching the white van raising up and down in hydraulics (you mentioned they weren't needed and a fat guy like you could just get in and out a few times).. to which then you'd mentioned your weight loss.

I may make the next meeting if able. Thanks for the contact option for runs out. It may be fun. My neighbour has a Porsche Cayman 3.5 so hopefully going for a run with him soon and his brother in his GT3.

Haha. I feel I have more of an understanding now of who's who. Just the name badges needed to put this info to correct faces. So which one are you yasmar? or are you just a complete different kettle of fish to the rest?

Anyway just been catching up on forum and this thread has run its course, you've all said your bit but come on guys it's a car club not a playground let it go . If the chap wants to come again he will and if not its his loss ..... Stop defending our club we don't need to ..... And they say women are bitchy ......
