Hi Everyone.
Thanks to all of you that attended the meeting at Cubley. A big
welcome to Lynda and Roy Cattlin, who have just joined us, they
had a lot of interesting ideas and a lot of enthusiasm. We would
also like to welcome Ann and Peter who came to the Sunday run on
the 8th June (I hope I have got your names right but my
apologies if not)
One of the things brought up at the meeting was the petrol
situation, it got a mixed response so I think you must all
decide what is best for you. The people attending the Sunday
runs will decide between them how far and where they would like
to go.
We will be going to France in 2009 for a week to ten days. If
you are interested in this trip please let Jill know. We will be
having a planning meeting before the end of August to decide on
when and where etc.
The weekend trip to Bruges in October will still take place the
cost of the ferry the meals on board and the extra night in
Bruges will make this about £250 per couple not including any
food off the boat the closing date for this trip will be Sunday
the 10th August. We are going to block book this. Please let
Jill know if you would like to book your place.
The National Rally Belvoir Castle 7th September. What are your
thoughts on this do we go for the weekend and take advantage of
the Saturday and Sunday events or just go for the day please let

lights and Christmas meal, a week in Ireland Spring 2010 to take

May was another busy month with some nice Sunday runs and of

very well on the great roads and the scenery was incredible.
