Stewart Gordon opened the meeting at the Boness Motor Museum, our first meeting at the new venue and welcomed all to the meeting and did mention that an excellent turn out was evident this evening some old but new faces and of course some new faces also, in particular Bill Drysdale a new member, welcome aboard Bill. There was 19 Porsches in the car park at the museum and 29 members in total, simply excellent guys and dolls!!!(EVEN THE LOCALS CAME OUT THE HOUSES AND SPIED ON THE CARS IN THE CAR PARK)
Stewart did ask on your thoughts to the National show and comments were welcome to be put forward however positive or negative also ideas and suggestions. General comments have been forwarded to Sean Smallman with reference to the National Show and Sean has replied to the Scottish region and it will be looked at for next years show, Sean did agree that there was room for improvements and certain aspects of the show will be addressed for next year. Sean did also mention that our comments were very much what others have said also. I am confident that next year will be a much improved show and we look forward to receiving information on those improvements.
Stewart then presented Martin Whitelaw and Arthur Mitchell with commemorative Trophy’s from the 2007 season with reference to members of the year. Well done guys!!!!.
Stewart did mention a big thanks to Alan Neilson (ARO) for arranging the new monthly meeting venue, an excellent choice Alan I have to say and everybody commented on how appropriate the new venue was. Stewart then went on to thank Neil Fraser (ARO) for arranging the Gaydon accommodation etc.
