Hello Tim and as other have said it's good to see you on here - although not in the circumstances we would have liked. I trust that you will be encouraged by the support you have from all of us.

I echo Si's comment that we still hope that you will be part of our club life, your great friendship was appreciated by us all.

Couldn't have put it better myself (y)

Good to see you on here Tim despite the circumstances. As has been said, the contribution both Chris and yourself made to the club was massive and made the events scene what they are. I'm sure we all hope that you can remain a part of the 'family' on here. Take care Tim.
 
Yeah thankyou Tim, without you and Chris organising the events and being so organised in general, where would we be.
Matt

Ps. The list needs an edit in Rich B's post its been doubled up.

Sorted this with work, I am now a definite. Like several others, I plan to wear a suit unless Tim requests otherwise. I have a blurple tie to wear, but will bring a black one with me too in case this is deemed inappropriate.

No idea what RichB was on, so i've quoted the previous updated post from Relliot, which RichB seems to have taken his from.
 
20 cars if my maths is right.
(plus Chris's car=21, maybe less depending on if Rich & Ria come in one car or not and someone on the list is driving Chris's car so that may bring the numbers down too)

Just incase anyone doesn't know the venu postcodes etc. I'll post them here and the convoy thread. But if you want Chris & Tims home address you will have to PM me as i'm not putting it on the open forum.

Rendevous point: Shires Retail Park, Leamington Spa, CV34 6RH

Cremotorium: Oakley wood crematorium (north chapel) oakley wood road, bishops tachbrook, leamington spa, CV33 9QP

Wake: The Leopard, oakley wood road, bishops tachbrook CV33 9RN (we pass it in the convoy on way to cremotorium)

I posted this on my phone so hopefully it looks ok.

I'm totally guttted... emailed the company early last week to ask for the day off next thursday, phoned today to check and they have said no as i'm just starting (Starting Mon 16th) and as it wasn't a close relative etc, so i asked if i could start the next week this way i could still go and they said no as work was in place already for when i start on monday, if it had been a few years back would have told them to poke it, but at my age and been in a poorly paid job for the last 2 years can't really do that,sorry

So i will be with you in mind and thinking of Chris and have a few quiet moments to reflect, and i know you will give Chris the send off he so richly deserves

i've amended the list from Al's last post

Ive been keeping quiet until now as i have been trying to arrange time to attend , but unfortunately i will not be able to make it on this date , i have a hospital appointment which i have been waiting for for the best part of 12 months and have been told by the hospital if i cancel this appointment i will go to the bottom of the list again .
This i find very frustrating ..... you would think the appointment could be simply shuffled around or something but i have been told categorically no .
So my heart felt apologies to Chris and Tim
And apologies to everyone who can make it .

I feel for you mate. Becky isn't going for the same reason, she has a hospital appointment that she has waited 6 months for and they said if she did not attend it she would not be seen until May at the earliest!! Makes you wonder!
 
I have been toying with the idea of attending also. I have even offered to pick up Paul, Wogans_wig or Dar on the way down. Unfortunately Paul can not get the time off work and I have not heard back from Dar. I have now decided that I will be attending even if it is on my own, it is a long way to travel, but, I feel that Chris deserves it. I will be travelling down the M1, so, will probably meet up with you guys at Trowell Services once you have decided on a time.
 
I cant match Dick for commitment but i have managed to change a supplier meeting from Afternoon to morning and am now planning to attend - i will be travelling down from Derby so will meet at the retail park
