RAF Marham Driving Days 11 & 12th October 2008

Reminder seeing as a small minority of people want to change the system that seems to be working quite well

I am co-ordinating the attendance on three forums across both days with a potential total of 170 entries - if everyone deviated from the process laid down in the post on page 1 - I'd be stuffed - not "mildly stuffed" or "a bit stuffed" but propper completely stuffed because I wouldn't know which way is up - if I lose that (trust me on this) things get really really pear shaped and I really really don't want that

So a little summary and some reasons
'
SEND ALL DETAILS BY EMAIL

It's like wearing sunsceen and a hat - should be common sense

on reciept of this email - I will reply with address to send cheque

I can tolerate a few "TBC" details and a follow up email with the missing information but I'd rather get it all in one email if posible please - if that means a couple of days delay then it's not a problem the event is no where near fully subscribed yet so it's not gonna make a heap of difference

IF you don't get a reply to the email within 3 days assume that I have not got your details - post up that something isn't right in this thread and we can sort something out - it may be my spam filter or it maybe something else either way we can fix it so don't panic

Why do I want details by email?

I copy and paste the details from your email into the spreadsheet as they are written - if you make a mistake that affects you entry into the event then it isn't my mistake - I have all the emails printed out as well as saved - this isn't because I want any mistakes to happen it's because you need to be responsible for providing correct and accurate details

there is a secondary reason for this - my typos are famous amoungst people that know me well - Famous NOT Infamous - they would be Infamous if half the attendees at then next Marham event were turned away because their details didn't match my typos - that would then result in a lynch mob with me the target for the noose - thanks but no thanks - I think we will stick with a process that doesn't require me to think or type information!!!!

If anyone wants to go a different route then I have some real simple advice - find another forum to attend with - please make sure it's one that I am not dealing with already - sorry but the process is clearly documented - just follow it that is all I ask.

if this seems like a rant it's not but I would like to ensure that everyone know exactly where I stand on this.

Apologies to two forum members who have equally blunt emails regarding this issue but it's not going to happen any other way than as detailed in page 1 - remember you only have to deal with your details - I have to deal with potentialy 170

Ian

I see you have updated the list, can you check your inbox for Daniel Oldham's entry. I sent this yesterday.

Just wanted to make sure you received my full details, as haven't had any confirmation & cheque is waiting to be sent.
Thanks

Just emailed my details to you for the Sunday, ditto the above hope I am not too late.

Thanks.
