Dear Darren,
Please also don't think this was a dig at you either.. I'm in no part of any "witch hunt". My use of the term 'turmoil' was probably out of context, as I said before I wasn't there so can't comment. I could have used the term storm in a tea cup, but I am REALLY not trying to alienate people (anyone) here!
I've also read that the meeting was run very well and again I am not having a go here (!). Please don't take offence at this, but from an outsiders view, you 'appeared' to be stressed in how you responded to the 'criticism' and again I stress, I'm not trying to add to this, we all do this for fun and a hobby pastime, its not life or death.
I understand the difficulty in finding the 'impartial' person due to the circumstances and passion involved. However, again (perhaps niavely) could/should this be something to aim for? Could it be possible to open it (the discussion and choice) out from 'only' the clubs decision to all the mid south BRCA members? Or am I just talking 'moon on a stick' scenario..?
For me this was an honest, open forum question as to what happens now..? and whether 'we' as group can do anything to make everyone in the region feel more involved for the benefit for everyone.
Cheers,
Mark
