AGM

[tlc]

I did a poll on here - and we don't have any young members - I am one of the youngest at a mere 43

Ralph. Come on now. You can lie to your Wife / Girlfriend. You can even lie to the Taxman.

But don`t try and pull the wool over our eyes !

[Iain marshall]

Chris i think hes put a 4 instead of a 5 think you should set up another poll on his age.If you haven't see Ralph here's a wee pic

[davejames]

You cannot be serious !!

I don't think Ralphs a day over 30..........I would say though as he bought me tea at the AGM last night.

Pleasure to meet you Ralph

[RALPHARAMA]

Back at last Spent a bloody mint on tools today Got stuck in traffic on the M6 cos I was too tight to give Gordie the Bastard £3.50 of my hard earned to give to one legged lesbians with forty illegitimate children and banks.

The show was a good crack and it was great to meet so many people from on here. Even met Fitzer and Pauly. The tales of drunken debauchery at the AGM as eluded to by Hobbo earlier in the year were sadly exaggerated, but it was good all the same. Dave very kindly gave me a lift to the pub from my B&B - top man

Stale one of our members from Norway said hello, but Paully wasn't being very friendly:



This was the only occasion all day that he partially removed his hat. He seems to have a bit of an ear fetish ... or perhaps there other explanations for this curious behaviour ? :-





His fellow Oirish mates were good fun though they seemed to think that my ordering a half at the end of the night was a sin on the same level as necrophilia with a recently departed baby For this social gaff I was awarded a rather insulting piece of Oirish slang, the meaning of which I was fairly sure I had read in Roddy Doyles excellent novels, but they asured me it was not impolite - a quick check of Oirish slang from Google proved my memory less fallible than usual - gitz They were certainly on a mission and the bar boy had a real struggle to eject them from the boozer at closing time, at, what I considered, an unreasonably early hour. I finally observed that Pauly is good at something, other than insulting folk ... drinking, he appears to be determined to take Ireland into the medals next Olympics for drinking.

Fer used all methods of persuasion, both ethical and otherwise to ensure I bought a club jacket. To be fairs it's a cracking jacket at a good price.

All credit goes to those who organised a cracking stand which was a credit to the club.

I think that at this point it would be right and proper the give Jerry the credit he deserves for the work he puts into keeping the good ship Z1OC sailing smoothly - it was only during the AGM that I realised quite how much he actually does - think about it for a sec - every year he has to receive cheques from members, which then have to be banked, stuff sent back, he has to keep an eye on who owes what, what the finances of the club are etc. Negotiating with show organisers etc etc All this on top of his full time job. He is ably assisted by his good lady wife who also deserves our thanks. Thanks

I own that Travelodge and your fifty quid is in the kitty for drink

IF you own it why don't have some real bike,surely you could afford one Boran

what like those piles of crap you photographed with all that plastic
but then Ondas were allway's third rate
so you showed yer sorry ass at Stafford
jeez you must be even more ugly than Ralph
given that you hide yer mug at every turn
well you keep hiding old fellah
if I never meet you it will not be a minute too soon

[paul doran]

on a serious note Jerry and Jane put a huge effort into this show and into the club with little thank's as do Fer and Cath
I was deligted to see that at last their effort's were rewarded at Stafford
the Club had the best result yet
it's easy for member's to turn up at the show admire the bike's and have a good time
it's what the show is all about
but spare a thought for the time and effort organising the stand has taken
and as usual it was even better than last year
well from Me thank you

[paul doran]

oh! finger in the ear was to lessen the decibel's of Ralph's laugh
