Mark90 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 MEMBERSHIPShire membership required, new members at the normal £10pa Do all vehicle occupant have to be members of just the drivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_M Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Do all vehicle occupant have to be members of just the drivers? At a guess I would say just the drivers, certainly at all the Shire playdays I have been to it is only the driver asked to show membership.

MogLite Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Do all vehicle occupant have to be members of just the drivers? Anyone who is driving needs to be a member for insurance purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffbeaumont Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 When's the last date for applying? Don't think I can find the money before pay day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MogLite Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Geoff - send in your form with a cheque - our treasurer is on hols at the moment, so nothing is going to happen for a week or two - just stick a post it note on it, and I'll clear it with Joe - the events officer. Can't let a little thing like money get in the way of a good time Marshalls - yes we are in need of people who know the Seven Sisters site, I'm supposed to be getting a list together with David Lovejoy - Landrover598 - yeah your name is on the short-list already. Matrix - who are you ? Have you been to Seven Sisters before ? Andy (Shires Vice-Chairman) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark90 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I can vouch for Matrix, sound guy and like Landrover598 he is also a local. Dunno if that counts for or against him I was thinking about offering to marshal, know the site fairly well, but think I'm gonna come and just play instead, am bring a mate who hasn't off roaded before so will be showing him the ropes (literally).

will_warne Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Geoff, there's no cut off date as such; entry closes when we've got 100 vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Why 100? You could loose 500 in there! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 You could loose 500 in there ...I think that's the point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I am willing to Marshall for you if you wish? Been to the site many times and know my way around, even at night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matrix Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Matrix has decided to take up residence in my passenger seat I was hoping to have my own seat by then but that looks unlikely now So I will take that spare seat if its available I can vouch for Matrix, sound guy and like Landrover598 he is also a local. Dunno if that counts for or against him Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I can vouch for Matrix, sound guy and like Landrover598 he is also a local. But who will vouch for you Mark? Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark90 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Ahhh..............well.........................erm.............. Maybe I could get a note from my mum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffbeaumont Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Won't be going now, I'm afraid - had the disco lined up as backup if the Range Rover wasn't back together in time (it won't be), but the sudden demise of the tumble drier has just removed any chance of scraping the money together. It's bad enough when it's just the Land Rovers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Just to bump it to the top and say that the deadline for entry forms landing on Joe's doormat is NEXT WEDNESDAY (20th). Everyone who has sent off a form will be getting a "welcome pack" with info & directions & stuff next week, Nay is looking forward to the "lick'n'stick" session at Dan's I think she might be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Could us Marshalls get some info too? what are we setting up? Punches? Trials? easter egg hunt..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
