Content?
 
It's not the content of Chris Bushells SECRET e-mail to Anthonyes self styled clique, but the way it's all been so publicly bandied around as if to deliberately draw attention to it all.
One of the original reasons for going behind closed doors was supposedly for this sort of public display to have been avoided, now thanks to Chris stating PUBLICLY that he's sending out SECRET e-mails (combined with Anthonyes deliberate baiting) that is putting peoples noses out of joint.
Especially when Chris himself states "He only needs to ask", if that's the case Chris then you can talk openly!!
The DD committee has got all entrants e-mails, names and addresses, they can all be contacted outside this public forum about "points" for discussion before their day in Norfolk so why do it in front of everyone here?

dickieducati 31-Mar-2005 13:14

psychlist, all fair points and with hindsight im sure it will be done differently in future, but as you are aware it really is no big deal just could have be dealt with a bit better imho.


now getting back to the coffee........

macchiato for me and a baked not fried donut. ta.

Bit difficult in my leathers Mr Dribble sahib, too many doughnuts :P

Desmondo 31-Mar-2005 13:33

Is somebody giving out doughnuts?

Ian 31-Mar-2005 13:40

don't know what to say really, - bit confused.

The intention was not to be secretive, it was just to make sure that everybody knew that they had mail as some of the e-mail addresses are hotmail, - and perhaps like me they don't always have messenger signed in and sometimes I don't check it for a few days, - I even sent off a text message as I knew one of the riders does not look at the board, and checks is e-mail about once a week. We just needed an answer to a question relating to one of the race days, - my fault I said not for discussion on the board, as we wanted the riders uninfluenced answers to be fair to both points of view. It was all a bit of a rush, as we need to get out a press release with FINAL dates so as to get covered by the likes of Ducati.com and MCN.

I have phoned Mr Bushell but he is in a meeting when he comes out I will severely castigate him.

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise....

Ian 31-Mar-2005 14:13

Jools hasn't been able to log in yet (technical difficulties mate?). It would be preferable to allow him, if not everyone else, to see the result of his initial question.

Jools 31-Mar-2005 15:12

Hmmmm....I'm back after some difficulty logging in.

I seem to be somwhere near the centre of this little spat with people poking the fickle finger of derision at me.

Can I just point out that my only contribution to this thread - (until this post) has been

OK then....inform me.

Why do I have to ask?

Innocent enough I think. Just taking Chris up on his offer, which somehow seems to have touched some raw nerves.

I suppose I'm too late for coffee and donuts?

Dibble 31-Mar-2005 15:14

why is it whenever Jools posts all I can think of his him singing ...

"when i'm cleeeeeeanin' windahs ...." and jigging about .......

Desmondo 31-Mar-2005 15:18

AK 31-Mar-2005 16:01

BDG - spare double room available with us if you want (or anyone else wants) - for Brands, which is about 45 - 50 mins drive down the motorway, traffic permitting.

Dibble cant tell you his address, it might ruin his position in a 'clique':lol::lol:

Ian 31-Mar-2005 16:05

Folks,

Having been away on business for the last 24 hours, I come back to a sea of recrimination and vexation. I have to say that this has somewhat surprised me!

Whilst not going into the details of all of the whys and wherefores, we needed to get feed back on a particular subject from the DD entrants to resolve an issue with the series. It was agreed that in view of the fact that I was leaving within the hour the best way was to e-mail the participants and put this post up on the message board to make people aware that it was coming.

This subject needed a quick resolution and was certainly not an area that was suitable for public discussion, given that this is a public forum and in all honesty does not affect anyone except the entrants.

I hope that members of this Club appreciate that we do endevour to be as open and transparent as we can on most things to do with the Club; certainly we do not suffer with clique problems as some other Clubs I belong to do, but at times some discussion needs to be private.

The issue in question has now been resolved and I am giving it till 19.00 for any final suggestions to come in. I will be e-mailing the entrants with the result in the morning and that should be an end to the matter.

With this behind us we will be able to look forward to the 1st race in 4 weeks time.

Best regards



Chris

booom, tiish ..... (and the lights slowly fade out to black)

psychlist 31-Mar-2005 17:48

Fade to grey.......ah yes.........gosh that not only takes me back but probably dates me as well :alien:

BDG 31-Mar-2005 17:50

CK & AK thanks for the offer.

Ian/Dibble would love to tour the sights of the big city again (i spent 5 years despatching down there, mind you that was just after the Great Fire of London so it may have changed a bit. I'm quite fond of darn sarf) but its my daughters 6th birthday and i'm off to Czecho on the bike shortly afterwards so Brands is completely out of the question.

There was a certain irony in the statement 'i don't travel very well':D
