South Wales mini show 2010

[minicity]

Wow, Never known tiredness like this lol,
Many thanks to everyone for the emails, messages and pm's, It has made the weekend worth while
Not much I can add to what has been said already, we didn't let the weather beat us big thanks to everyone that came and to all that made it happen, special mention to Snowdon Mini's for the ICE competition, M4 Minis for the exhaust competition, the Army cadets for braving the weather to help out guiding the traffic ( maybe we should make a donation as they didn't have much luck with their buckets? ) and of course to the Stig, who certainly brightened up a lot of people's day.
It's been a privilege to have been involved

I feel all members should know the outcome of the show.

The show raised £862.26 profit. the original Idea was to put this towards the club funding next years show. I have already stated that this was to be my last goodbye to SWM but have learnt tonight that the members who were involved in the show planning have decided to not do another show next year but to keep 1/2 the money for the club on top of the £427.00 already in the club funds. The remainder will be going towards Ty-Hafen.
I had expressed my opinion that if the club was not going to arrange another show then I thought it would have been a fitting tribute to Taffy that all the profits go to Ty-Hafen as a mark of respect as i believe after paying for all the outgoings on this club myself for the last three years that the club funds would see it through for a number of years, Sadly it has been chosen not to do this.
As the club are not going to arrange another show next year I will look into organizing an independently run show in the name of a choosen charity and will post more details up in due course, in the mean time I can be contacted at [e-mail]

as one of said organisers i'd like it to be known that yes we have agreed not to do a show next year but to do another Gower run and hold a show bi-annually, so the money being kept will go towards next years run and the show the following year.
