Rebel...

Too much to say AGAIN....

You have a lot to say about the inaction in 2006 by the States...
"The lack of support from the States was deplorable"

1. I've been the Queensland President since 2004 and have NEVER been approached to take part in any of this.
( There was a disjointed meeting held on one occasion...and everyone seemed to be wanting different things....a mess )

2. The "National President " of WHAT ????

I see the same few people "Bumping their gums" on this issue...with little knowledge of what the manufacturers are doing to try and sort this out.

I know of actions being taken and that have been taken by manufacturers, with a view to sorting this mess out....but it does take time, and they don't all run to you every time they talk to someone.

I'm sure we'll see ANOTHER ten pages from the same few people saying the same stuff as I've seen on MANY previous threads...Insulting and attacking everyone whom they judge to be sitting around doing nothing about it.
And...Let's not forget to throw in a half a dozen comments bagging everyone in a government position ....that always helps with getting things done !

I'd like to be able to help the situation....but frankly the thought of joining forces with some of the people I see puffing their chests out on this forum gives me the absolute stirks.

I really don't feel like getting in to some big argument with anyone...but for for Chrissake....get off ya bloody horse about how the States and the Manufacturers are letting you down......

I've spent thousands of hours of my time trying to do "positive" things to help make being part of the Cobra community something good......

I never see you involved in anything...but as soon as this subject comes up, you are suddenly in the front lines...bagging everyone for doing nothing to help.



And Merv.......

"we should elect future presidents and their committees with this as their agenda, and attract folk who are willing to lead the fight for recognition of this as a replica class."

Step up mate...it's all yours........don't forget the other 30 hours a week that has to be put in with a hundred other club related matters, trying to make everyone happy.....

You're a classic mate !

Ahhhh.. That feels better....

It's off my chest.

Goodnight.

Lotsaluv,
Warren

Lotsaluv,
Warren
Are you saying you knew nothing about a proposal in mid 2006 to establish a National lobby group with the aim to have Cobra Replicas removed from the ICV classification?.

It's clear to me, and it seems most others...
You make statements about what a deplorable effort the State Presidents/clubs put in, and you'll get a bite from me.....
I HEARD about a PROPOSAL to do SOMETHING...but as I stated...I wasn't approached in 2006 to do anything about this.

Just like this thread...it's a lot of talk about what should/could/must/might be done...
Doesn't mean I'm being asked to be a part of anything.


I've said my piece....and happy to help with any positive sensible actions....within reason...I have a business and a life, and a great deal of time is already spent on Cobra related matters...wouldn't mind if someone else wants to make something happen though.

Cheers,
Warren.

I'm back dancing ...
Warren, the only person on this thread insulting and attacking others is yourself.

This attack was unwarranted and not conducive to your position as Queensland President.

I was responding to a post by Baz with a truthful rendition of the facts. The fact that you misinterpreted my comments as an attack on yourself as Qld Pres or the Club is of no concern to me except for your diatribe in responding.

You comment you never see me doing anything for the club may have something to do with the fact that I'm no longer a member of the Queensland Cobra Club and have not been for a while. You are aware of this fact yet you feel obliged to criticize my inaction.

Some folks on here know the reasons I distance myself from the Qld Cobra Club but those reasons have absolutely nothing to do with your running of the Club.

Now, you have been Qld. Pres for a long time and I am on record on this and other forums as being complimentary to your efforts. However, you have put your hand up to be the Qld. Pres so don't whinge to us as to the work load. Not my concern fella!.


The music has stopped and so have I.
