Chris Goldson has asked me to let you know in good time that the Annual Skellingthorpe Gala will be held on Sunday 25th June 2006. The Gala was revived in 2004 after an absence of several years. It is run by the village community, and raises much needed funds for the many groups within the Village. For the last 2 years RHOCaR has had a good representation in the traditional motorcade through the village with as many as 8 cars in the parade. It is a very enjoyable day out, please support the event.

From Chris -

The Gala is held on the Community Centre playing field at Skellingthorpe (just outside Lincoln, a few miles to the North West of the City) which like previous galas will be a vehicle based event

The Gala is the weekend after Newark Show on Sunday 25 June starting at 12.00 noon. As always we have arranged a band and a buffet supper at the community centre on the Saturday night before Gala Day which has proved to be extremely popular for the last two years. Tickets for the Saturday night dance are £10.00 each but we would appreciate it if you could give us early notice if you want these as they quickly go once the event is advertised in the village.

There is limited free camping facilities on the Community Centre playing field for those who wish to travel on the Saturday and stay over.

Hopefully like the last two years there will many different vehicles present. All monies raised goes to village organisations/and/or charities of their choice, Skellingthorpe and District Motorcycle Club for instance have raised a lot of money for the Air Ambulance and LIVES so it's all for a good cause.

Hope to see many of you there.

Best Wishes

Chris Goldson

Ok guys and girls! In a couple of weeks (tops) I'll be removing the RHOCaR 05 members and demoting them all to Community Users. Please try and upgrade your account at http://community.rhocar.org/custom/upgrade.php if you have not already, but take note as to when I last had membership details (I only get very limited info, don't worry!)

Hope you guys/girls have a great 2006, hope to see you all again soon, as I didn't get to one event last year (2005!). Keep safe!

MERRY CHRISTMAS GUY'S AND GIRLS!

Have a good safe one, and DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE, it's not worth it, at all!

Hi

All

as I may have mentioned I have been looking for a venue with a bigger car park more central to most members, Snapperpaul has suggested the Tulip pub in Arbour Lane Chelmsford it seems ideal has a nice big car park and beer garden, the next meeting to be held there would be Sunday 29th Jan between 11.30-2.30pm, any comment or if you need directions please mail me.

cheers

Rusty

All

Please note that we will NOT be meeting in December. Our next area meet will be on the 25th January at the usual venue - Waterside Inn in Mountsorrel, 7.30pm onwards.

Please come along with your ideas and wishes for the area for next year and we can then get some dates in the diary for some runs out and other local events. Sorry its been a bit quiet for a month or two but the new arrival has taken up a fair bit of time!!!

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year to all.

Ok guys and girls it's called FOR SALE/WANTED for a reason, for people to sell stuff. Do NOT spam these threads with crap that have NOTHING to do with the actual sale of the item (wanted is slightly different) as there ARE people who are really interested in purchasing the item.

I will, from NOW on, put a 48 hour access ban for access to the community to anyone who disprectes this rule.

Upgrading this board software is something that I've wanted to do for a long time. However just as I was about to do it, they annouced another revision due, so I waited (and waited and waited). The damage has now been done, and luckily nothing was deleted, but casued me about 4 hours work, including sorting it out, and applying as many non-official patches as possible.

So the next step is to upgrade this board to the latest version, I've no idea how long this will take or when I will get to it, but we will see

Hopefully it will hang in there!

I was unfortunate enough to lose an uncle last year to cancer, this year both my sisters are entering the "Race for life" in aid of Cancer Research in our uncles memory.

If anyone would like to donate (online) to support them, all donations small and large are welcome, and they can even claim the tax back on it as well.

Both my sisters are running, and the links to there online donation forms are at :
