TT,

I can’t see him on line any more, maybe he has snapped under the pressure:D :D

twinturbo 4th May 2010 09:30 PM

Duno, perhaps he's just typed in the word "FISH" 800 times and snapped...

Anyway, I had some good news from a member on one of my other forums, He lost his job at a signage/print/etc... Firm last year but started a new similar job Today. So may be able to get stickers/merchandise etc done at a reasonable rate .

£800 - £2,000. We might not be doing membership cards straight of the bat.:o

Has he posted yet.

Other Business

There were also various discussions on "Rules of the Club", these will be discussed & finalised between the elected committee members & posted on this forum before the 1st July,

It was also discussed that as this forum is a Worldwide forum then every member of this forum should be given ample time to comment on the above elections of committee members & membership details,

any objections after this time will be noted but the above elections will be deemed as "Carried".

I , on behalf of the elected committee hope that all forum members will take the above in good spirit , but am sure there are details that need to be confirmed with regard to creating an Official Club & this process is ongoing as we speak, as & when new confirmed details are available then these will be made available on this thread as & when they are finalised.

The meeting ended at 2030 hrs.

the dax club just uses numbers - no card - the reasons needed for membership number are limited usually.

Nice one Andy.

Just as I remember it.

I can go to bed now. NOT

Welldone to HandyAndy and all of the other members at Stoneleigh for sorting this out, just sorry I couldn't stay for the meeting in the evening. Can I be so bold as to suggest that anything that needs purchasing could be thrown open to the forum to see if there is anyone who can get a good deal. There is obviously a large network of enthusiastic people here that could be utilised for bulk purchase etc.

Oh and by the way, the build is officially started, I have taped out the template on the build table and laid out some metal to make it look good. The bits of metal match the drawing very nicely;) cheers Andy

I have been at work so not much time but have started trying to mock up a website design. Bearing in mind this is a very rough draft and a work in progress, this is what I have so far.
