Default Ar08 Important Notice

Dear All.
Many thanks for all your input regarding this years AR. I understand that there have been mixed feelings and a few handbags thrown and dummies spat. I for one have spat the dummy for which, please accept my apologies.
I wanted this event to bring together the Org but it seems to have done the exact opposite . During the organization process I had given my boss all the details of the forum so he could have a look at the way we deal with things and how progress was going. We have had a meeting this morning and I am sorry to say that after reading through the various posts etc he has withdrawn his offer of the "Full Fat" event.
We as a company had forgone some larger outside catering events in place of the AR08 but it just all seems to much of a risk for us and for the most important people YOU THE MEMBERS OF THE ORG.
I am sorry that the whole thing has degenerated into slanging matches, cross words and such.
I have informed the committee this morning and we are seeking advice from the moderators of the site as to which way to proceed.
We will let you know as soon as we can. Those who have sent a cheque this will be returned to you ASAP.
I have now parted company with the farm effective 29th Feb so I personally feel we should look for alternative camping arrangements.
I do not wish to change the ride out because it is a fantastic route and will be great fun.
Please bear with us and we will post up details of what is now going to happen as soon as we can.
Many thanks to everybody and please let's stop the debates, arguments and cross words. The org is a great community, lets all get back to the way it should be.

"Whoomph there it is."

Sorry to hear this Viper. I hope you find your next step quickly. I'm also kinda devastated I've not yet tasted your hog roast and now it's looking unlikely I ever will. D'oh.

As for the AR, wherever we end up, I'll be there.

Thank you to all the effort the organising committee have made so far, shame that it can't proceed as planned but wherever we end up I'm sure we will all have a blast.
