December Meeting

Ron welcomed all to the meeting and thanked all for attending. There were 23 members present at the December meeting. Guests present were Erika & Klaus (Marcus' parents). Apologies were received from Keith Nicol, Jean & Steve and Neil and Christine.

Last months trip to Corvera's airport perimeter was enjoyed by all those who attended and it gave Members a chance to see the location and the idea of the travelling time it will take to get there, with it being further in than San Javier airport. The run was good with a start on the motorway and then taking in a few villages followed by a good meal. Thanks to Colin & Mo and Keith & Sue for organising this.

Ron advised Members that although the Club was formed in 2006 and legally registered in Alicante as a non-profit making club, it was never registered with Torrevieja Town Hall, which Ron discovered when he went to register for the Associations day on 4th December. However, with a little help from Graham Knight, we are now fully registered with the Town Hall and we will be invited to future events held in Torrevieja. The Associations Day on 4th December was a great success. We had 10 cars on display on the paseo in front of the "Hombre del Mar" statue. The Town Hall had made a banner which was strung between two palm trees and stated that we were part of the Associations Day and was both in English and Spanish. Watch the papers for news on this event! Ron felt that it was important that we were there and he had received good feedback from Graham Knight - he was impressed!

John Wallis gave an update on the changes to our website, due to it being a little out of date. He has met with Keith Nicol and Ron and the website has now been re-vamped with new information and new pictures. There is also a translation button, which will translate items to German and Spanish. John asked Members to have a look at the website and give him some feedback, also if the German members could test out the translation button.

Pictures from the Associations Day will be added. Ron thanked John for his work on the website as he has spent a lot of time on this and it will be updated monthly.

John Wallis and Gaynor have been looking at ideas for future trips and as some Members struggle to come up with ideas of what to do/where to go, John and Gaynor have come up with 7 ideas for future trips and John asked for 7 volunteers to pick a choice of trip and organise it.

John is organising the January run to Cabo de Palos, Ron is organising the Almond Blossom run in February, which leaves Caravaca, Fonts D'Algar, Sierra Espuma park, Chocolate Fctory, Historic Vehicle Museum, the Caves and the Salt & Pepper Museum. Volunteers were requested for these runs to help share the load with organising the trips.

John advised that a "reccy" is required which may involve 2 trips and choosing a restaurant. These events are being organised as follows:
March - Chocolate Factory at Villajoyosa, Tom & Gill,
April - The Caves, Keith & Sue,
May - Fonts D'Algar, Joseph & Evelyn, June - Historic Vehicle Museum at Guadalest, John & Gaynor.

January's run will be on 29th and the Almond Blossom run will be on 19th February. Mike advised that he had been looking at organising a trip to the Mines at La Union. Ron advised Members that as the International Marina will be closed for the holiday season, our meeting in January will be held on the 18th.

December 28th - Innocentes Day - once again, we shall be holding our annual "silly driving skills" day. Ron has applied to use the car park at the Soria Antonio park in Torrevieja, which is near the Aquapark. At last years event, following the driving skills, we all had a round of crazy golf and a meal - Ron asked Members if they would like to do the same again this year and the response was unanimous. If anyone is interested, fancy dress may be worn, but this is optional and not a requirement!

Any Other Business
Ron advised that we need to cap the number of cars in the Club as up to 30 cars is a struggle when trying to keep together on runs and can also prove difficult when trying to organise a restaurant. We currently have 34 cars in the Club. Ron advised that prospective members will go on a waiting list. This is felt to be necessary as there have been problems in the past which caused a split in the Club and Ron has no intentions of this happening again.

Muriel gave a "birthday update" - Maria and Olli celebrated their birthdays in November and this month we have Erika and Albino - Happy Birthday to you all.

September Meeting

There were 17 members present at the September meeting, including new member Neil Asher who has recently joined and has a 1977 VW Camper. Apologies were received from Steve & Jean McLean and Mike and Lesley Stansmore. Last months run to Casa La Pedrera was the first time that we had had a BBQ and not everyone was happy with this, so in the future we will not look at runs with BBQ options for lunch. Ron advised that he had a mild irritation with the fact that when there is a problem with a run, Members go to other Members to have a "moan" when in fact they should take any gripes up with the person who has organised the event. So please, in future, if anyone is not happy with an even, take your concerns to the organiser for that event. Nominations are due for the AGM next month, the latest date for these are 17th September, please advise Ron. Can ALL Members please make an effort to attend the AGM. Ron advised that we have some more of the brass plaques for the cars and they are available at the cost of 17 Euros. Ron reminded Members that during club runs, the Club is not responsible for the vehicles but the owners are and they should be responsible for EU and Spanish laws.The Club will not condone unlawful use. Ron advised that during the months of July and August next year, there will be no runs as the heat during these months is too intense and some of the older cars are susceptible to overheating. However, although it is too hot for a "day run", Ron suggested that we could meet for an evening meal or snack during these months - this will be discussed in the future. Ron reminded Members that subs are due at the AGM in October at 20 Euros per member. Anyone who is not available to attend the AGM, please contact Gaynor of your intention to remain a Member and advise her of when you will be able to pay your subs.

Forthcoming Events

September - Unfortunately, the planned event for this month will not now take place so Ron will organise an event in its place - details will be forwarded as soon as they are available.

October 23rd - This is the date for the anniversary dinner and has been organised by Joseph and Evelyn and is taking place at Veni, Vidi, Vici at 8.00pm and is the same venue where we went last year.

The menu for this is : Shared starters of baguetter bread with alioli, salad with chicken breast, pate, cheese, ham, salami and calamares a la romana , main course is a choice of a) chicken breast in cajun spices with gratinated potatoes, b) sole fish filet with lemon sauce, rice and creamy cauliflower, c) pork loin in pepper sauce, steak fries and vegetables, d) fresh fusili pasta in mustard sauce. Dessert is home made anniversary cake and coffee and the cost for this is 14.50 Euros per person which inlcudes a bottle of wine between 4 people and water - anyone not drinking wine can have one soft drink.

Main course is to be chosen beforehand so please advise Evelyn of your choice on 966784490.

Ron will also organise a day run for October - further details will be given at the October meeting.

Xmas - Ron has contacted the Manager at Rebate and has made a booking for 11th December. Carlos (the Manager) has said that this year will be better than last year! As yet the cost is not known but the Club will subsidise Members.

Any Other Business

John Lambert asked if anyone knew where he could get a Ford Cortina steering rack.

Sue Lakin gave her thanks to John Lambert for the work he carried out on her exhaust.

Gaynor presented flowers to Dieter to pass on to Ilse to thank her for the recent BBQ.

Joe advised Members to keep an eye on their cars whilst at local displays i.e. La Montesinos, as someone had tried to take his Pinafarina badge from the Ferrari.

August Meeting

There were 21 members present at the August meeting, with apologies from Paul Norkett.

Last month's run to Pinoso was a very good run but a little too hot for the old girls (and the cars!). It may be advisable to have a cool run in July next year. Thanks to John and Gaynor for organsing the Pinoso run.

Ron made reference to the run on 19th June where Albino broke down and advised Members that whenever anyone should break down or have some car trouble during a run, they will never be left alone - we will always try to assist them or wait with them until the Grua arrives.

With regard to the AGM in October, Ron advised that he would like nominations for the posts of President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer to be in for the September meeting. As we have a number of new Members who may not be aware of the Aims & Objectives of the Club, Ron read them out at the meeting.

Ron advised that he will soon be approaching companies for discounts e.g. Serca, tyre companies etc., - Members will only be entitled to a discount if they have a current Membership card. Colin mentioned that he has contacted the man who repairs leather and cloth seats and the cost for one seat in cloth is 150 Euros. He is awaiting delilvery of the cloth and will give an update on the quality and service once the job has been completed.

Forthcoming Events

7th August - Ron has organised a run to Casa Pedrera and we shall be meeting at Manolos at 5.30pm with a view to leaving here at 6.00pm. We shall then have approximately a one hour drive through Algorfa, Orihuela, Hurchillo, Torremendo Lake up to Casa Pedrera. We shall then have a BBQ with an abundance of food at a cost of 12 euros per person. Drinks can be purchsaed at around 1euro each. For those wishing to have a swim, don't forget your swimwear - there are 3 pools at Casa Pedrera.

Any Other Business

On behalf of the Members, Ron thanked Sue and Keith for the party last Saturday. Keith thanked those who attended and for the gifts etc.

Xmas Raffle - if anyone has any items that can be used for the Xmas raffle, can you please start bringing them in starting with the September meeting.

John Lambert asked Ron if the books donated by Paul Norkett could be distirbuted amongst the Members as none had been sold. Ron agreed to this and John will bring the books to the next meeting.

27th August - Dieter and Ilse are holding a BBQ at their house from 7.00pm. All Members are welcome but they will need to take their own meat and salads etc. You can also take your swimwear and use the pool.

A Challenge - Fitting flags to car

2009-11-21T00:10:00.001+01:00

NOTHER CHALLENGE FOR YOU

We need a solution for fixing the Club Flag on to the Club cars. The problem is that the existing fixing on to the side windows causes a problem in the summer for the cars without air conditioning as the drivers cannot wind the window down. Fixing on all the bumpers is not easy. Get your thinking caps on please.
