There is a Sprinter due imminently. Not only has Jeremy had to move house this summer, but articles for the current edition have been hard to come by. I myself will own up and say I promised him a couple of pieces before the deadline which I didn't get done as I promised him (don't worry, he' smacked me hard and I've promised to do better for the next one). It's an unfortunate fact of life that regardless of your work and holiday commitments, the deadlines for things like this (and the Southern Mega-Meet) don't move to accomodate your circumstances.

 

Putting the mag together is a challenging job, moreso if you are running your own business, raising a family and there is a shortage of material from the members. I will take my deserved beating over the delay I caused to Jeremy, but at the same time I'd reiterate that the Sprinter does not write itself, so if you would like to write an article for the mag, just write it up and send it to Jeremy. Believe me the satisfaction of seeing your stuff in print (compared with on a forum) is very rewarding.

 

Cheers,

John

Some fair points John.

 

I've always tried to avoid criticising the club because of how welcoming everyone was when I first started, and how good all the club organised events have been. I know Jeremy has been exceptionally busy and I think thats why there hasn't exactly been a lot of grumbling about the lack of Sprinters!

 

And as you say, we are members are as much to blame for a total lack of articles - I really must try and put pen to paper at some point and try and do my 'bit' - problem is, there have been a number of events that I have attended lately (like the Brunters thrash, and a rolling road day) but as they were organised by DubForce and The Corrado Forum its a little difficult to know where you stand writing material from events organised by something totally unrelated to the CCGB - I feel that some of the longer standing members might grumble a bit about that.

Just got around to renewing my membership (a few months late :oops: ). Gotta say it is well worth it- as other people have said the events are brilliant (especially Woburn) and I've saved loads of money over the past couple of years as my stealer gives 10-15% membership discount :D

Yes, I have to say VWCCGB is well worth our support.

Good point :?:

 

I'm going to get my membership sorted too... £8 sounds like a bargain.

[Jim 1]

They probably use the information as a bit of a detailed register for all the Corrado's on their record! I would imagine that a lot of enthusiast car clubs would do something similar?

[dinkus 10]

I should reall update my membership, because I didn't actually have a C when I joined... meh it can wait til next year :)

[Guest]

I joined the CCGB, and will be renewing next year :)
