What does that mean?

I hope you all manage to sort it out - I'm sure it started out with the best of intentions and just lost its way a bit. Face to face contact might be better than email - it's so easy to misunderstand someone's intention from the written word.

Rosemary, thanks that is what we all want, the principles are there for free range outdoor breeding and " enjoy the pigs"!!!!!!!!!!!, I do hope Mr Ree comes along I really want bums on seats and to see this outshine any other organisation in France. We need more people on board,or those who lost interest to come back and say to us newbies what went wrong and how to change we dearly want this to be something to be proud of, and I for one will do my best in this task.

Come on folk

Well said Mr Ree. I have been following this, or , rather a similar discussion on the same topic, on another site in France.
  You are ,I think, only the second person, with the bottle to stand up and tell it like it is.

    Thanks John.

There are a number of commitee and founder members who resigned because of the same sentiment.

I really do hope people attend or at least send in a vote by proxy to, as Mr Ree said put an end to all this, I along with, I'm sure others would like L'association to work for us people in France.  From what I've been told , I think I understand a little of why commitee & founders members have resigned, perhaps they would consider returning if there were new blood on the board who like them want to push L' assiciation in the right direction. 

Mr Ree please reconsider, the association needs people like you, come on people  :-\

I would attend,but the Landy is off the road for a bit with gearbox trouble,so I won't be going anywhere soon. As a non-member,I can't even give my vote by proxy to a trusted friend either! Have fun and report back please,best wishes..... Ree

Sure, will do Ree. 

Ol yes, Landy's what fun they are, Matt has recently replaced his 2nd & 3rd gear to discover that he also needs to replace 5th  ::)  We have the parts, it's now finding the time.  It's a ex-military 110 defender still green & black camo! We love it, it's such a great workhorse.
Sorry to have gone off the boil....

Just to say thank you to all those who turned up for the meeting on Saturday 8th November. The meeting was a great success and things are moving forward with speed.

The website is changing daily http://www.labpif.com/ please take a peep and pass on your positive comments.

If all you can see is the original green colour then press F5 - possibly on each page, to reveal the new look and content.
