Hi All,
As from immediate effect, we will no longer meeting at 'The Railway Buffet, Bridlington Railway Station, Bridlington.
Club members will be aware that our December meeting will be held at a temporary location(yet to be decided), so that members will have a chance to discuss the matter openly and freely.
However, the website header page will still show the old details for a few days until it can be removed. Once a new venue has been discussed and agreed with members, the new details will be added.
We hope to have normal club meetings back in place for the start of 2015.
Cheers,
Bigkev

Hi Kevin
Yet again we have to thank you for all your hard work to keep the club running as normal - I hope you appreciate that WE ALL understand and eulogize (the rest of you will have to look that up) you for it.
-
Club rule, no big words please!
-
Well, it is what it is, I think we need to move on and not dwell on the past.
-
Without using big words - just for haddock - the club is its members not the place we meet, that's my view.
-
Sounds about right.
-
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all your support.
As it says in Apollo 13..................'we have a problem'.
So, I am sure working together, we can up with a solution that will put us in a better place soon.
We might have to accept changes, but it is important all feel involved and their individual views are taken into consideration.

Hi All,
Just to update you with the latest on the venue for 8th December.
Thanks to Dave, we have got the use of the dining room at The White Horse, Main Street Bempton, Nr. Bridlington, YO15 1HB to hold a private meeting to discuss the problem, and discuss possibilities for a new permanent venue at different locations and their individual merits.
The meeting is as usual 7.30pm for 8.00pm start.
It is important for as many members as possible to attend to have a chance for their input.
This meeting is for members only, however please feel free to bring your Christmas cards along to distribute.
Also on this night we will not be displaying models.
Cheers,
Bigkev

Hi All,
Forgot to tell you, I will be bringing along a box of books awarded as a prize to the club from Scale Aircraft Modelling International for putting on the Best Model Show for 2013/2014.
Though these are mainly aircraft orientated, there are some Military titles in there too.
To make it fair, all members will be given raffle tickets, these will then be drawn and the winner will be given a choice from the selection on offer.
First tickets drawn out of the hat (Janice's) win

PS. Please note as we are getting the venue for free for this meeting, will everybody do their bit and please buy at least one drink from the bar as we have done in the past at the Railway Buffet.
-
Please remember you will be expected to buy a drink (at least one)
-
Can I but a head as well as a drink. What kind of place are you taking me to.
-
It is Bempton y'know, strange things happen in Bempton.
-
What are you talking about, it says buy?

Hi Zak,
I'm afraid Martin has just finished 'Rosie and Jim' and struggles with words......................Bless!
Or could it be he has had his pockets sown up..........................again!
Bigkev
-
No, I'll come clean I modified the message later - ha, ha.
-
Zak,................... Oooooh you bad boy!
I'm gonna have to slap your legs.
Martin, I apologise about 'Rosie and Jim', the pockets though.......................................?

Well a clean banker - have you been laundering the club funds ???? Ho ho ho and bless to you as well Kevin
-
I've called much worse than a clean banker - thank you Martin.
-
All members should now have had details of the venue for the December meeting. I put directions and a picture of the place in with the hard copy newsletters.
Rather than an Apollo 13 situation, the problem has been turned into a solution, once again thanks to the dedication of "them that make things happen", so thanks to them. It's a chance to build on our recent successes and start afresh in our twentieth year. I'm looking forward to the change.
See you there then. :)

Hi Wizzel,
Thanks for that last comment. I think we should be in a 'better place' next year, both figuratively speaking and physically.
Hopefully the next meeting will see us nearer to that better place. Roll on 2015!

See you all at Bempton.
I am away for the next 3/4 days.
Remember Cropper's on Saturday next and Monday.
-
Another reason for Kevin to say Bless --- who do you think got up this morning and was sorting out his day to end up at Bempton for the meeting.
-
Martin, get a grip.
What are you like.
-
I think I am like Pavlov's dogs -- it gets to the first Monday in the month and I start to salivate.
OR I AM JUST GOING DAFT.

NOTE TO SELF; "ensure the date of the next meeting is put in all future newlsetters" ::)
