Notes regarding VMCC West Wilts Section Meeting, 14^th February 2019 at Chippenham Rugby FC

The meeting was attended by 15 members and some wives and partners, slightly less than usual no doubt due to romantic competition! And talking of romantic competition thanks to Brian Newbury for organizing the AQ (Abreviated Quiz) which enjoyed by all, with Pete Fielding walking off with the bottle of whisky; at least he was still walking when I saw him!

Note: wives, partners and girlfriends are also welcome to the Glenn Miller evening below.

The wandering to the Greyhound at Bromham on 7^th February was voted another success with 8 bikes and 30 attendees.

Our next Thursday Wandering is to The Langley Tap at Langley Burrell (SN15 2HA) on the 7^th Feb from mid day. We have been asked to pre-order food, so if you are coming and want to eat, please let Colin have your choice from the attached menu before Monday 18^th Feb… See his email 8^th Feb.

The Bristol Bike show was cancelled on 2&3^rd Feb due to heavy snow and will now take place 23^rd and 24^th Feb, previously purchased tickets will be valid.

The email circulation list is being brought up to date so that soon all our members should receive both the meeting notes and notifications/menus of wanderings, unless we do not hold your permission in line with the “Data Protection Act”. Most peoples were sorted last year and I have emailed the remaining few requesting a completed form by email, scanned copy or hard copy. Please reply soon or we will be reluctantly stopping sending emails.

Jim Gaisford informs me that Edmonds are holding a vehicle auction at Allington Farm, Chippenham, dates and website below, with zero sellers fees for members should you wish to increase or decrease your collection.

Reminder 1: order your food for The Langley Tap at Langley Burrell (SN15 2HA) 7^th Feb, by Monday!

Reminder 2: respond to Data Protection act email if you received one.
