CCC CX, XM and Xantia Rally 2011.

Post by Duke » Tue Jul 19, 2011 12:00 pm

CCC CX, XM and Xantia Rally 2011 - 2/3/4 September.

As decided at the CX Section Committee meeting at the National Rally a couple of days ago, the already planned CXM and G Rally will also incorporate the Xantia too.

It will therefore be henceforth known as the CX, XM and Xantia Rally and this year will also include the G Section.

Our very own Jim Eastment has joined the CX Committee too and he will be organising the convoy route as he lives very local.

There are also some great changes coming to the rally from last year. There will be two new trophies awarded including The Best Xantia in show and also The Roger Bradford Memorial Trophy. This will be awarded to the one car at the rally that Roger would have chosen as his favourite; the one he would have exclaimed "Good God!" to on first sight as he was apt to do.

Also, costs have been revised too as even more of an incentive for people to come.
£5 for the whole weekend and FREE CAMPING.

Breakfast available on Sat and Sun Mornings
Dinner in the Pub Sat Evening.

That's me...

I was just walking past the marquee at the National munching a cheeseburger and got co-oped (or was that press-ganged?) They didn't even give me time to get a cup of tea before being frogmarched into the meeting :twisted:

The convoy drive is a problem and so far I don't know where we're going or how we're going to get there. The route guide is currently a blank sheet.

Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to attend in an XM as it is unlikely to be up and running in time :(

Of course it can. I did the HG on mine weeks after a back operation to get it done and running.

We could have renamed the rally the CXM, Xantia, G spot... ;)

Yes, it can. If Shiply comes through fast enough and I can get some more time off work then there is a chance... I still have well over 30 days of leave to take before the end of the year...

It's a target to aim for...

:lol: :lol: That caused a bit of a stir on the FCF when someone suggested that the GS/A area be called "Malcolm's G Spot" :roll:

That's because I carried ten days over from last year, the maximum permitted.

I find it very difficult to take leave... Not that I don't want to but due to the demands of the job...

Also, I work flexi-time and build up excess hours which also adds to the effective sum total...

No you're not Dave...

There is no worse profession to be in than IT, believe me. :evil: The actual technical work is OK but all the management, posturing and politics boll***s that surround the job drives me insane. I can only cope with it by being a bit of a rebel against it all.

This week off has been wonderful. I'll got back to work on Monday with a very bad attitude and then immediately book another couple of weeks off to start work on the XM :D
