Tour of Hamsterley rally. sept 14th 2008We will be looking for marshals for our own event. I would like to think we get a good turn out from the club.hamsterleymarshal@hotmail.co.uk www.tourofhamsterley.co.uk |
||
| Gav Taylor |
This'll be a good one guys, local as well! | ||
| steaallan |
whats the score with t of ham web link when there is no web page | ||
| Gav Taylor |
WIP ste mate | ||
| club sec |
I have emailed you all about a possible kick start promo for the Hamsterly at Teesside, please respond asap. We might get something or nothing from it but it will be a few hours work, an impromtu club meeting and why not!
Would Slippys car be available, only at Teesside for a few hours, good oppurtunity to finally meet the Smogsport team. Perfect chance for Ste's businees cards to prove their worth, but we would need a Hamsterly flyer ready for the day, over to you Mr taylor. |
||
| Gav Taylor |
flyer is done, sending the release out as i write this | ||
| club sec |
Ken hall might be loaning us his 6R4 on Sunday, which is nice! | ||
| Gav Taylor |
in what relation to TOH? | ||
| club sec |
Marshal recruitment, doing my bit since I won't be on the event. | ||
| Gav Taylor |

|
||
| slippy |
Howay man I'm not having that 
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
mate I've had it since the Croft historic since i mentioned i "would turn up" when i didnt it was like I'd slept in and had the keys to open up croft circuit on the day of the rally. | ||
| slippy |
Lazy tw*t 
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
a picture paints a thousand words... 
|
||
| slippy |
Err hold on son do you go jogging most mornings and hit the gym about four times a week ?????
Neither do I
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
hit the gym 4 times a week aye. do my joging at the gym on the treadmill with the built in tv, run about 15-20 miles a week, no sh*t mate.
not in training for the tyneside like, need toned arms for those corners bro! |
||
| slippy |
I'm naturally ripped mate
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
bet you are
|
||
| steaallan |
so gav what are you in training for | ||
| club sec |
Ripped to the tits.
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
the summer 
|
||
| slippy |
Might be able to russle up a few boys for marshalling duties if required 
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
Daves your man for that big lad | ||
| steaallan |
dave is defo the man to russle up a few lads (cough cough) | ||
| Gav Taylor |
steady now!
|
||
| steaallan |
are you PROTECTING him for a special reason | ||
| Gav Taylor |
no of course not, I have a defined role for the rally, I was simply stating Dave was gay.
|
||
| steaallan |
i was just wondering as press relations officer what will you be up to on the day of the rally | ||
| club sec |
Hopefully he will be having a live link to the net so Joe public can be kept up to date.........or he could be in the pub. | ||
| Gav Taylor |
probably a bit of everything, of course there will be no better reward than to have a wonder into the forest, spark a smoke up and watch a stage knowing that was part of the team that made it all happen.
Still a lot of work to do before then like! |
||
| steaallan |
sorry but no good i will be working my butt off not like you sat on your ass | ||
| joe_the_waiter |
careful ste, Gav has already done more than you will be doing on the day. | ||
| steaallan |
only cause you are not forwarding me the info like u said you were going to do | ||
| club sec |
Must admit there is a shroud of secrecy on the TOH, not much info for the general club members.
We cannot allow the club to be divided on this, but Ste is also right, putting effort in to one event is no good, what about those of us that toil all year round? |
||
| steaallan |
sorry marti but you are not part of the organising crew | ||
| club sec |
So because of that I am excluded of any information? So much for me being the hub of the club then. | ||
| steaallan |
well you know wot its like less u know the less the police know
|
||
| club sec |
Mmmm, not sure I agree but.....
I presume we marketed hard for the TOH at Preston Park? |
||
| steaallan |
no i have to admit we did put the word out and there was a bit of interest | ||
| Gav Taylor |
Ste, with all due respect mate you've been a bit of a late starter for the TOH, the meetings have been going on for months but to date you been to one meeting so your hardly in a position to tell me what to do for the TOH
and I dont see your name on the organisers list. Anyway I'm not getting into an argument as it is counter productive to the event, any help as always appreciated. Lets not start infighting like school girls and get on with the task in hand. Remember potential competitors and other people in the public domain can read this forum so your not coming across as very professional Ste to the "outsider". |
||
| Gav Taylor |
Like I said in the oily rag thread I am writing an update about the TOH for the next issue. But if you have any questions about the rally why not simply ask a question about it on the thread here or the British Rally forum like everyone else does. |
||
| club sec |
Don't do BRF, I already post on 4 so I don't need another. | ||
| Gav Taylor |
can always ask a question on here then, no brainer really. Dont see what the problem is. | ||
| club sec |
Well there is a dedicated thread that never gets used, that's one thing and nobody comes to the club and spells at out to the members what they can/ will be required for. | ||
| Gav Taylor |
fair points, but the provision is there.
There was also an annoucement March inviting people to get involved, though I'm sure there will be further annoucements nearer to the rally to fill the remaining places |
||
| steaallan |
and also before the start of all this i offered my services for anything but no-one took it up so not my fault no job no point in coming to meetings are there? | ||
| slippy |
Howay chaps lets feel the love if we start nit picking amongst ourselves there is no hope
All of you do your bit and should be commended for that end of 
|
||
| club sec |
Agreed, but communication is key. | ||
| steaallan |
a bit of banter is a good thing keeps the world moving on and were all good mates on here | ||
| Gav Taylor |
anyway Ste, whats this uber important job you will be doing on the day?? | ||
| steaallan |
them most important one of the day (cooking breakfast??) | ||
| Gav Taylor |
and licking my feet
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
still waiting for a proper answer old boy......
|
||
| steaallan |
as i said i offered my services but no one took it up so now i will wait and see what dear old cus has planned for me | ||
| Gav Taylor |
might have a word in his ear old boy cut you down a peg or two!
that aside I recieved some very positive news for the rally this evening, which will be announced next week. watch this space. |
||
| Gav Taylor |
and heres one for Ste CHABBA! | ||
| slippy |
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT !!!!!!
On a serious note you have 5 potential marshalls at your disposal if required |
||
| Gav Taylor |
if female tell them to meet me behind the bike hire shed!
of course joking, I promote females in motorsport (!) any help appreciated lads. |
||
| slippy |
Who do we need to contact re offering our services
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
for marshalling or the the local girls? | ||
| slippy |
Both but mainly marshallig duties 
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
see me for the girls, the marshalling...Big Davy
get a gravel set up on and do some real rallying lad! |
||
| steaallan |
dave (joe the waiter) | ||
| slippy |
Already offered our service to Joe at Preston Park
As for gravel rallying one Gavin one day but not in the Clio I don't think she's like a delicate Italian lofer |
||
| Gav Taylor |
what overpriced, worn by a greasy prick and no good in the wet?
|
||
| slippy |
Tsk
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
just pulling your leg mate.
cant beat a decent pair of shoes, nowt says more about you I say. |
||
| Gav Taylor |
Yet again a no show from Ste tonight
Poor show old boy, poor show. I'm thinking his official apointment to the rally should be revoked i.e. no points for the club championship as an organiser if I was being harsh.
|
||
| club sec |
Does that mean I should do the same for no shows on a club night? | ||
| Gav Taylor |
different league mate!
Besides what role do I have for a the club night every week? Turn up? Thats about it. |
||
| club sec |
turning up and joining in is the most important part. | ||
| Gav Taylor |
what exactly would I be joining in with though?
Sitting about doing nowt seems pretty pointless to me like!
|
||
| club sec |
|
||
| Gav Taylor |
not having a dig or owt just my personal view. | ||
| club sec |

||
| joe_the_waiter |
Slippy, i have included you in my list of marshals... but a list of names and contact details would be useful. Have you seen the marshals newsletters? (downloadable from website). | ||
