Resignation of the Competition Secretary The Straggler reported that his offspring, Lord Snooty and Desmond would be prepared on receipt of the weekly information to produce the necessary spread sheet. St Rappe commented that although this was most commendable and substantially more than any other individuals had offered he believed that the position required someone who attended on a regular basis in order to make instantaneous decisions on competition format, local rules etc. He also reiterated his comments in his resignation letter that new blood with fresh ideas should be installed about every 4 years.

The meeting closed at about 1.45pm.
