Firstly,I am delighted to see so many new members joining in our healthy discussion group.
At least it WAS healthy until a few of you started an anti TTRA theme.Let me tell you, friends, I am NOT impressed.Thank goodness my good friend Tommy Robb has offered his welcome words of wisdom. The web site matter is fair game mind you, and I'm slightly embarrassed with the situation,BUT if you guys really knew the whole story,you would change your tune.
Please bear in mind this is a voluntary organisation,doing amazing deeds for TT riders,and connected persons, oh yes, I would love to tell you what actually DOES get done behind the scenes. Stand up Frances Thorp (our secretary),and John Kidson (Treasurer), committee members Joe Wood, Andy Jessop, and Malcolm Wheeler, and other unsung heroes. I am so proud to stand as President in this Centenary year, and I will defend everything about the TTRA that is good.Where were you when Frances asked in an earlier newsletter if anyone would help out with the website? It IS time consuming,and some of us have jobs!
Do you think our Patrons, namely Kel Prince,Michael Sutton,Murray Walker, and the Earl of March would wish to be associated with an organisation that was not worthy of their Patronage?I am delighted to tell you that our famous Luncheon to be held later this month has received fantastic support, with, I believe, over 500 guests already booked. Colin Seeley will be taking over the role of President.
Please oh please good people of this website, by all means have healthy constructive and controversial discussion at all times. I begged you in an earlier posting NOT to talk about matters of which you did not have a full grasp. Allan Robinson was a courageous and genial character, and truely a friend to many, and I am ashamed that his memorial posting is being used to soil the TTRA.
