I was delighted to discover that in response to the Club's invitation to vote on line, I was able to make a proxy vote to instruct the Chairman to vote on my behalf against his re-election.

I feel he made such a fool of himself and of the Club by instigating the Caravanner of the Year competition that he is not fit to continue in office.

Please follow my lead and make use of your vote.

True, Fysh. There's the world of difference between an election statement and canvassing. 

And even more difference between either of the above and real life once electedWink..

How come almost everyone who posts on here, knows what's wrong.  But never actually come up with any positive suggestions on how to get right?  

I believe that if the club tapped into the wisdom and experience demonstrated on this forum.  The club could be transformed into a bankrupt shell with in 5 years.  

Write your comments here... That's because there's always someone who thinks they  know better .............it's just that the CC membership as more than average it's share of knockers ....I guess it's a little like the England manager's job , the press & public don't agree with his team choice or the team tactics but wouldn't have a clue  , other than say how everythings wrong

Looking at the list of members nominated for Office and Committee in the magazine I am saddened that there are no women. As I have said in previous posts we need to move into the 21st Century and show a more balanced outlook. Yes, I know it is up to women to put themselves forward, but it wouldn't hurt for us to encourage more diversity amoungst those who 'run' our club.

Maybe women have more sense than to want to get involved and prefer to use their talents in areas that really matter. Cool

The issue that would have got me voting against the current regime wasn't COTY. It was the promotion of three of our sites to local planning authorities for redevelopment. 

Having discovered that the Executive weren't aware of this matter I looked into how the club runs and have concluded that those with the power to make changes to the issues that concern me are not positions that are elected. 

As I have little interest in the club side of things I'm unlikely to vote

Our Magazine has only arrived today ,so just had a quick read ,it seems that some of the articles and info this month are quite relevent to a couple of the threads started in the last week ,  and have noted that some of the posts "questioning" one or two things , but if read without the "clouded outlook " that  some have,  actually seem quite informative Wink

I too am beginning to look at how the club is organised as I now have more time. 

I am particularly interested in how representation is made to the club regarding CL's. and their future development. 

I have asked twice now on the forum but not yet received any reply from CG who has stated he has an influence. Of course the most likely reason is that he may not have noticed the posts. 

I am intrigued how a member of only 5 years standing has such influence
