12th October
As
most will know there is a VMCC forum, for members to interact with each
other. Against my better judgement, I joined and found some of the
posts interesting, however, there was an atmosphere of "don't dare to
question the management" and I was rebuked for simply asking how many
redundancies were there to be at HQ. Today, I have recived information
about a second forum that has been set up to be able to discuss the
management of the club in a more open manner - details here, if you wish to join, just follow the link in the document.

There
have been quite a few interpretations regarding MOT's that have been
extended due to the Covid-19 situation. The extention applies to all
MOT's that were due for renewal after the 31st March 2020. It's best to
ignore all the experts and just click this link
and put in your reg number - you'll then get the exact date by which
you need to sort an MOT. Further down the page there is past
test
results, passes and fails, and that can make interesting
reading.
I'm told that the Cornwall week next year is arranged for the 4th -
