Faye Posted November 25, 2004 Author Share Posted November 25, 2004 Originally posted by dude Guys this isnt on , Faye and Keith shouldnt be out of pocket on this deal !!!! How much shortfall is there at the moment Faye ????? Dude:flame Dev around £250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigger Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 How many people are going faye? I'm sure £250 won't be much if we divide the cost between us. Just an idea Just looked at other thread. If there is 44 going the it will be an extra £5.68 each. If the list is correct it will be £4.62. It’s not a lot to ask if we want the place to ourselves is it?

CJ Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Firstly, I am one of the ones who had to pull out of the event so cannot collect the money on the night but I have already sent a message to Faye telling her that I will pay for my ticket regardless. There is no way we should allow fellow members to be out of pocket after all the time and effort they have put in to organise the event.

Lazarus Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 lets divide the £250 by 60 and all chip in !!! Agreed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Originally posted by dude please post with your support on this matter . I'm happy to pay extra to make up any shortfall. I think people who put their name down and then pulled out should pay anyway though. The costs were made clear at the beginning - if it was a ticket event you wouldn't get your money back. I would hope most people would anyway, like CJ already has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Originally posted by Faye It was going to be in Birmingham area but due to a complete lack of take up from anyone around there and northwards, it was agreed that it should be moved to a location where most of the attendees were.

Its a crap enough job organising these type of events let alone being out of pocket afterwards Whatever the final cost is, it should be divided by the number of people attending. The least we can do to ensure that Faye is not subsidising this event. Really Faye and Keith should get free tickets for the work that they put in sorting it out. Come on guys and gals, play fair!

Bobbeh Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Why doesnt the club cover this considering its a club event? Why is it down to 2 individuals to cover the costs when they're doing it on behalf of the club? (I wouldnt mind paying the 4 or so quid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAngry Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 I agree with everyone above! My hand will dig as deep as needed on the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Originally posted by Bobbeh Why doesnt the club cover this considering its a club event? Why is it down to 2 individuals to cover the costs when they're doing it on behalf of the club? (I wouldnt mind paying the 4 or so quid) I dont think that would be fair either. What you are saying is that other members who didnt want to go and never agreed to go should have their membership subsidise the event due to people dropping out. At the end of the day, if those peope who dropped out after saying they would go paid, then there would be no issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Well if they didnt want or never intended to go they should not have been on the list nor should have been booked to attend. This is the kinda reason no one organises things like club track days or karting events, you get people agreeing so you think you can book for say 20, then when it comes to the time no one can make it. This was one reason about having the club sponsor such an event, so any costs could be supported by the club membership money I thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitelightning Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Yes, this is why there should be a slush fund, not yearly pressies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Sorry, yeah I will dip in as well to pick up the slack... Personally, I think the people should be named and shamed, they will only do it once...... And it gives us an idea of who the people are for when other events are organized... I don't envy Keith and Faye for the work they have done thus far.. Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Originally posted by Whitelightning Yes, this is why there should be a slush fund, not yearly pressies. Agree 100% However i've no problem donating to the cause, i'm only just down the road so will already be saving a fair few quid over those that are travelling a fair distance. No need to name and shame IMO, should be a 100% positive event, everyone will have a laugh, forget those that are no longer coming (for whatever reasons) after all its they that will be missing out, not us see you all there.................

tbourner Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 I hadn't read this thread until now, so maybe the people that dropped out don't know of any money problems. I'm sure this is a good enough place that people would be willing to help out whenever possible (unless it was a money reason for not coming!!!). I'll hand over a fiver when we get there!

Jay Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 We could organise free drinks for Keith and Faye on the night, as a bit of a thank you? (might end up providing the entertainment for the night!) I'm not adverse to sticking another tenner into the pot to ensure that no one loses out, it's the least I can do.

attilauk Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 of course i will contribute to the shortfall, there is no way faye and keith should have to pay the extra, not after all the hard work they have put in! (which im very greatfull for:) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted November 26, 2004 Author Share Posted November 26, 2004 Thanks to everyone for their support. My real preference is to get a few more people attending - I don't think people should have pay extra. So anyone got any mates they want to bring along? Jay - drinks are very well received!!!!
