I have already promised to buy Alex beer (how many???) but we are in desperate need of the rest of the requirements as the date is fast approaching and we may need to study. I am getting a little anxious but Brian seems to think that since Alex qualified for admission the standards must be low. A reply from the convener at his earliest would be appreciated.
The newbie or wannabe or whatever is appropriate Barry

Barry, You answered your own question with the "Alex" observation. Sort of a play on the old saw " I would never join a club that would have me". In any case, I can vouch for you - you being a C15TA owner and all. Bring a disk with some photos of your wonderful vehicle, and we will waive the "buy Alex beer" requirement.

Brian will of course be given a place of honour, he being a HUP owner and the acknowledged centre of excellence for all things HUP (I fully expect Bob Carriere to pipe up about HUPs not being a real CMP, but he is entitled to his opinions being one of the Charter Members of the ROTTERs).

If things work out alright, I should be back from Kingston in time to make the 5PM start. We are really looking forward to your visit.

PS - if you are available Saturday, a tour of the Hammond Barn can be arranged...
