I'll get me coat

I'm in Gliwice, just between Katowice and Wroclaw, about an hour and half away by all accounts.... Give me a shout if you're coming this way...

And I've calmed down now - off to a bar now...

And I'm still going to renew my membership..

Cheers

We've had a few people 'cut off in their prime' this month and so I'm thinking of changing the current automated expiry routines.

What happens now is that 3 days before your membership is due to expire, the message board sends out a reminder. Then on the last day of the month (or one deay earlier if you're Skids or Ray) your access to the message board reverts to a non-member status. Both the reminder email and status changes are automated routines and no manual intervention is required by the webteam or anyone else.
As soon as Lizzie gets your completed renewal form, she updates the subscription dates on the message board and you then have access to the membership areas again.

Personally I don't think the 3 days notice is enough, I'm thinking of increasing this to 2 weeks or 4 weeks notice - any thoughts/opinions ?

PS Martin, until Lizzie gets the membership details up to date, I've reinstated your membership on the board.

Membership lasts 12 months, so four weeks seems proportionate and should give most folks time to arrange their renewal.

Back in the office this morning.. head is a little sore, but it would have been rude not take advantage of the Project Manager taking me out...

Having read through the messages... I would say the following -

Lizzie - thanks, I appreciate it wasn't you're doing, I will send a text with my details later, have no intention of leaving no matter what everyone says!

Eamonn - the cut off does seem pretty sharp, a couple of weeks would seem a more sensible time. Thanks for reinstating me, and the new board is a huge improvement - one little bit of sanity in a frustrating place..!

Glyn/Fordie - the bike may be yellow, but with a bit of luck when I get home I might be able to treat myself to a nice new red one

Keefy - I thought I joined the inner echelon a few weeks back - wasn't that what that strange initiation ceremony was about? Or was that only BHCN inner echelon

Ruth - I would of course be very disappointed if you had voted for my reinstatement ...

AndyB - there may be a lot of them in town, but there's even more of them here.. and they're a lot more friendly and polite than the average N'mpton locals

Final thought - wouldn't everyone's life be easier (Lizzie in particular) if there was a facility to join/renew online? Now we've got this fab new board, it it possible?

Thanks to all
Martin

Never mind all this roundel stuff. Isn't Poland great???? Was there last year on the 996 and have to say: cheap beer, great food (if a little "homely"), great people. I didn't seem to get any sleep as we spent all night drinking and clubbing and I have to say the female population was very impressive.............................. Went back to Szcezyn (or however its spelt) this year and same story. Now back to this subscription melarkey, I would certainly subscribe if there were a DSC run to Poland/carpathians etc.
