From the President March 2020
From the President March 2020 I have had several attempts to write this month’s FTP only to delete what I have written and start again. Let me see if I can get through this without using the “C” word. So much advice and thinly vialed threats abound, one is simply inundated, not least from my […]
From the President January 2020
Several Car Club events have happened since I last wrote to everyone, so this is my way of recording happy hours spent in member’s company. We don’t usually have a run in December and last December was no different. We had planned our Winter Ball to be held in the El Campanario and had hired […]

The gods must be smiling on our Car Club as Saturday was a really beautiful day for our monthly run. This time of year, weather can be unpredictable, as we all know that conditions are not anything to write home about in northern Europe with its heavy storms and the accompanying floods. The meeting place […]
From the President September 2019
I hope you are doing well, now that the summer heat has subsided a little, although when I arrived back from cold wet England I was still taken aback at the contrast, expecting it to be a lot cooler. Leaving the issues of England behind is a relief in itself and I will refrain from […]

From the President July 2019
Our long-awaited Summer Garden Party finally happened on the Wednesday the 10thJuly. Your Committee, including myself were delighted with the turnout that gave some of us a little concern on how we were going to cater for many. We need not have worried as several members were only too glad to help, both the set-up […]
From the President June 2019
It has been three months since I sat down to pen a few words about our Club, an omission on my part that I will now correct. It was all due to my computer breaking down and my reluctance to replacing the machine without having an attempt at a repair. Needless to say, all my […]
