A great weekend, great atmousphere, variety, good hotel, company, weather (well at least from midday Saturday), and I for one valued the more relaxed Sunday which is what Sundays are all about.
Congratulations to Andy and Harvey and team.

Tim : the ONE person I probably didn't speak to over the weekend ! I did like Sarah's cigarette holder on the evening meal but didn't make it over to say so , too dazzled by John's shirt I guess  I enjoyed it a lot , I whilst Sunday morning wasn't relaxing (because the WiFi connectiion kept dropping out - not my fault!) we did go through the database well enough to get everyhone going and appreciate some of the features. Great weekend and well organised , the format worked for me + no queue for lunch too and I only had a 20 minute drive home |

May I also add my congratulations to the team for such a well organised and enjoyable weekend. I was particularly impressed by the flexability provided enabling one to pick and choose the elements required which must have added significantly to the administrative workload.
There were two particular highlights for me:
a) The after-dinner speech by Stuart Turner which I thought was priceless. I don't suppose anybody taped it so that it could be published in Viva Lancia? Or perhaps he could be asked for his notes and permission to publish?
b) To win a concours award for my Aprilia--all be it by default!!! If there was an award for the scruffiest car to win a concours award I think I would be due that as well! So where were all those lovely Aprilias that were at Goodwood? Maybe I will see some of you at Prescott next Sunday for the VSCC hillclimb which I highly recommend.
Referring back to the award it is called the Reubin Lovell award. Does anybody know who he was and what he did in the club apart from donating a very nice award?

A big thanks and well done to the team of organisers who made the weekend so enjoyable, I thought the extra time we had on the Sunday would be enough, but it never is!
The hotel was very good indeed
Big thanks also to the others who made this happen and especially David Melluish for his contributions as usual, which sometimes are overlooked.
Paul

Big thanks to Harvey, Andy, Steve, David and co for a great AGM, nice quiz, excellent tour, lovely dinner and super speech with a splendid format which in my opinion works extremely well. What a selection of cars and each year the quality improves too. The venue was superb with an accessible location from all corners, perfect size, no queuing for meals, car parking was good and the field was an added bonus- thanks for arranging the weather too.
If I were to gripe and this definitely cannot be pointed at the organisers it was the lack of young folk i.e. children in attendance , nevertheless my boys had a great time regardless but would have enjoyed it further still had other kids attended as they did in Shrewsbury in 2009. This is not my real issue here, what is is the negative attitude by a small minority of some members (The usual suspects who know who they are) towards us as a family bringing children to such an event where their ignorance and body language was all too evident.
But this will not deter us attending further AGM's as the majority of folk are most welcoming and we have to remember that children need to be encouraged as like it or not they will be the future of the club, so please, please can we bear this in mind, it is my 17th AGM out of the 24 years I have been a club member and as a family we hope to attend many many more.
That's it, gripe over thanks once again for an otherwise super event.

First time I have attended the AGM in many years, I was only there from 1.00pm onwads but still saw and spoke to plenty. I would though echo the comments regarding children.

My first every AGM and it was great to see some fantastic cars and meet lots of new people - it really did fly by. A big thanks to everybody who made it happen. Here's a link to some of the pictures that I took over the weekend: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8165854@N08/sets/72157627201173709/ |

We would just like to add our thanks to Harvey, Andy and EVERYONE involved in organising a great weekend, it was one of the most enjoyable we have attended.
Thought the changes worked very well, from the quiz on Friday evening (not just because our team won!) the Saturday AGM and the more relaxing Sunday, even after helping on the gate in the morning we had plenty of time to socialise and have a leisurely lunch. The
'staggered' lunch timings worked a treat .
Getting Stuart Turner as guest speaker was inspired.....hilarious ,the hotel ,staff and facilities were all excellent.
Well done again
Steve, Margaret and Emma
