Just wondered what people thought about where & when to present the cheque to Emlyn? I am still on the tie - though at this rate it may end up being a pair of crash test dummy socks. Just the one other thing - I would like to say a massive thanks to J for organising the boards to make this secret donation possible. Feels great to be able to pay back at least a little of the generosity I received back in late 2005

[quote=Wobbly Dave;354386]where & when to present the cheque to Emlyn?[/quote] Don't know but think it is probably better happening soon as he is already looking at new cars.

I think maybe next weekend?? Everyone that's going to donate will have done it by then. Was he not going to come over this way for a drink anyway? And then Justin could present the chq to him.

the end of the month would be a good idea wobbly or sooner if a good ammount is reached and there doesnt seem to be any one else adding

I am just aware that a few members may be donating a bit later. There are at least 2 saying they need to for us to wait? It's a fine balance between waiting long enough to get all the money together & not waiting too long before Emlyn goes shopping!! Perhaps the weekend of the 22nd?

[quote=Wobbly Dave;354415] Perhaps the weekend of the 22nd?[/quote] Sounds like an ideal date to me :-)

I agree with Dave here, weekend of the 22nd works :)

Well I think the RUSE can be meeting up for a drink to celebrate James's marriage? But how would we ensure that Emlyn turns up?

[quote=Wobbly Dave;354449]Well I think the RUSE can be meeting up for a drink to celebrate James's marriage? But how would we ensure that Emlyn turns up?[/quote] Think someone might have to fetch him. Someone organises a meet I'm sure he will come

Post 354454 by Jamest5r on 2011-01-11 17:40:09

Will have to find out what shift pattern he is on, he works 4 on, 4 off i think.

Post 354455 by Santa on 2011-01-11 17:43:10

Well if I post on the Meets section proposing a meet on the 22nd and see if he bites?

[quote=santa20;354455]Well if I post on the Meets section proposing a meet on the 22nd and see if he bites?[/quote] Genius, why didnt we think of that?

Post 354457 by Santa on 2011-01-11 17:44:57

[quote=Justin;354456]Genius, why didnt we think of that?[/quote] Not sure how I thought of it tbh :-)

Hey it may still be a winner - depending on if evenings are out. But this is the RAF. They tend to start at 06:00 - where the '0' stands for 'OMG its early!!'
