I like the new name – can I change from The Chase to Mackintosh Towers I wonder?

I counted up and there were 29 GoldWingers (well, 28.5!) here on Sunday – just about a houseful I reckon.

As you yourself know, Bob, Nigel and I have always enjoyed using the space we have here to entertain our Winging friends. Over the last 10 years, we have held inter-region music quizes, barbecues, bonfire parties, New Years Eve parties, mid-month socials, karaoke nights and many post-rideout chill-outs – we even hosted the inaugural meeting of GoldWings North Wales here.

As we are so close to the Beaufort Park Hotel where our meetings are held, after our club meeting/Christmas lunch next month we’ll be inviting everyone to pop round here again for further refreshments and to continue the festivities for as long as people wish to stay – so I do hope you and some of your members from up north will be here again.

It was a pleasure, and always a treat to be in the kitchen at Mackintosh towers. Thank you both for your hospitality as always.

Dave, its not an offer, its your right to stand on the committee as a member of Goldwings North West..
What time will you be leaving your meet point with Lesley & Barry?. We now have two places available in my car as Ian & Lynette can’t make it. We plan to set off a bit earlier around 9:30 from home and probably be at the Leyland junction M6 area around 10:00 am ish. Give me a call around that time and see if we can all meet up.

we are meeting the next chairman of goldwings northwest and his lovely wife

and who may that be then Dave, everyone is eligible for the post if they wish to stand, don’t jump to any conclusions. Personally I would love to see several candidates for each post on the committee. We have some very talented members who would jump at the opportunity to bring fresh ideas and leadership to the club. You yourself could even be interested in taking a post on the committee.

Great stuff, glad of your support, as for food I’m sure there will be, and if not we can always go to the usual pub for lunch. See map link on the post for directions.
