Now I know that a few members of this club like ourselves are members of both clubs. The OLC had their annual rally at Milton Keynes on the weekend of May 16th & 17th (the latter being the main day)
Through my work load I was not going to attend but at the last minute I managed a small window.
The Hall & Duck Trust have been members since the very beginning.
It has taken me a good few days to even put pen to paper, I have never been to an event where I have come away with such disgust to the organization and the way it was run.
No1 the important part – where were the public!
No2 Am still looking for the time line for the Green’s Silens Messor lawn mowers.
To be fair there were members who had traveled far and wide and across the globe,but to sit down in an AGM where the main theme seemed to be patting long standing committee members on their backs for long hard work, then giving them life memberships (free) is beyond me (without a vote I may add!)
There was suppose to be an area for members to put their foreign made lawn mowers could not find that either.
It was good to chat to members I had not seen for years,but it will be many years before the Hall & Duck Trust will be seen there again! A sad outcome.
