That's great news PJ. I'll look forward to it.

Who will be Chair at the meeting?

I'd like to propose that as you've shown an interst in this you could to do it.

Will you take this on for us ?

What consideration was given to those who've already volunteered?

Thanks Paul!

Once again any offer I put forward to try and help the DSC gets ignored...

ahh the joys of being invisible ;)

Sorry Lily, no offence intended and I sincerely thank you for your offer !! How about a team doing it or a vote on who does it ? I've got no axe to grind and don't want to influence the decision in any way !!!!!

How about the people who turn up on the day vote on it ? Any way it can be fairer than that ?

As far as I'm concerned whoever chairs it we will discuss all the issues raised.

Did you read my previous comments regarding it being a team effort, chaired by one person with a small group of unbiased, impartial, independent moderators that are able to control the meeting whilst still letting people have their say?

If the chair/team is voted on the day I think it may just delay the proceedings and you may not get anyone impartial turning up which in itslef would make things difficult.

Can't believe I just read that :confused:

I've read every post on this thread and have really appreciated the input, interest and consideration that's been given to my idea of having the meeting. My concern is that it all gets too complex when really it is an open forum meeting which shouldn't need to much policing. All will be heard and it surely just needs someone to take some impartial minutes for later reference and someone to call a bit of order if anybody gets too excited ?.

I'll listen to anyone else's views on how we run it of course, just my take on it.

I was under the impression that - you - were not ''running'' it in 07 ?

Which is why I said "we" meaning Ducati Sporting Club rather than "I" ?

I'd have thought that my fairly lengthy postings here were fairly self explanatory but I'm happy to discuss them with you if not.

I sent you my phone numbers some time ago so why don't you give me a call and talk through whatever it is you are unsure of ?
