Me to.

We did however always say that on the week that there is no meet we could add in an imprompu visit to a different location.

No John, you said, we just didn't argue.

To be honest I don't think the meetings that we have now are well enough attended to warrant alternative meets in the blank week to be started. I think this would just dilute the regular meet further and if attendance becomes thin people will not bother to attend. It's starting to pick up now, so let's leave it as is for the time being. Just my thoughts of course.

Your just sour cause you didn't show up to the meet when we agreed venues!

Just to clarify - I definately wasn't suggesting that we regularly have alternate week meets. But if ASM wants to organise a one off at a different place it would be better if it were on the alternate week to our regular meet else nobody will attend the main one!

The GM seems to be the section closest to our high standards.

Good question. I thought that the mod had to sign up to attend as many of the regular meets as possible. If we were to get an existing mod then I find it highly unlikely that they would do this.

Personally I think that the mod should be someone who is a regular attendee of the TV meets so that they can help guide the group and ensure that new members are welcomed. They should also have some appreciation for the personality of the group and its individual members. Thats my pennys worth.

Enough of this chit chat. The ape should stop being a grumpy bender and become a mod again!
