As Alot Of You Will Already Know Our Main Summer Event Will Be A Week Previous To Jae This Year At Billing,that Does Not Mean We Will Not Be At Jae In Peterborough On The 20th To 22nd July Just On A Smaller Scale So Feel Free To Add Your Names , Many Thanks Jason

CLUB DELICA are organising a Strongman Truck Pulling competition for this years JAE and its all in aid of charity.

 

The idea is that contestants make a small donation to the charity to take part and pull a Mitsubishi Delica & Driver over a 25M distance, fastest time wins!

 

Plus there will be a trophy for the winner and all money raised will go to the chosen charity (Claire has supplied a few words below).

 

As some of you will be aware Claires daughter Hannah has had a pretty rough time of it this year, so we thought it would be nice to do something to help a little. I’m sure all of you will help support as you are all aware of the great work Claire does and this could not have been easy to deal with as well as dealing with the amount of organisation JAE needs too. So would you please promote this event on your club sites, nominate some club strongmen and make sure you come and take part at this years show.

 

 

A few words from Claire:

 

A heart warming thanks to the boy/gals of the Club Delica for organising a charity truck pull at this years JAE to raise money for The Children's Unit of The Royal Marsden Hospital, Surrey.

 

Let me explain in brief if I can...as to why. At the end of January, my 15 year old daughter Hannah was feeling poorly. It started, with what appeared to be an eye infection. You know what it's like having a 15 year old going on 25 year old young woman in the house. All the nagging of removing eye makeup just wasn't cutting the mustard with her...hehe. Anyway, the eye started to swell and got to a point where she looked like she had just come out of a boxing ring with Mike Tyson. A trip to the Dr and prescribed antibiotics later, still hadn't reduced the swelling. After a week of not seeing a sign of normality, I took H (as we affectionately call her) to the hospital. From there it was like a speeded up movie with bad dubbing.

 

In February, H was admitted for two weeks into hospital, numerous tests were done. An MRI scan was ordered and the results showed a tumour behind the eye. More test proved nothing wrong with the eye, but the Dr grew more concerned about the tumour...as did we! On the day of H's discharge from hospital we were given an appointment at The Royal Marsden, Surrey. Some of you may not recognise this hospital, but it's a cancer hospital and one that both my parents were treated at. My heart sank, but H didn't know the impact of this, until I told her. We had tears.......lots of them, anger.......lots of it.........but out of it all we had a united positive front. Whatever happened we were...ARE going to overcome this.

 

After more visits to numerous hospitals to see many consultants, MRI and CT Scans we were called to Moorfields Eye Hospital in London. Where we met the leading consultant, who chatted and laughed with Hannah and arranged a biopsy of her eye, beginning of March. My ex husband and I sat nervously waiting for our little H to come out of surgery. I must say at this point that H was very light hearted going into surgery with her pre-med....she sounded very drunk and afterwards coming round...well lets just say I recorded her for future prosperity....hehehe.

 

The operation was successful as the Dr managed to remove all traces of the tumour and H's sight was not affected. A very neat scar on the crease of her lid...you would never know that she had an operation. We then had to wait one week for the results....not a good time! Results showed that H has a rare condition. The tumour was diagnosed as Eosinophillic granuloma. Not a great deal is known about this condition and she has characteristics from the below link. http://www.cancerbackup.org.uk/Cancertype/...llhistiocytocis

 

This is a disease that has no cure, she will need regular check ups throughout her life starting with an MRI scan every three months until further notice. I always said she was one in a million, now I know she is exactly four in a million with this condition. It's heart breaking to know that at anytime my H could develop another tumour and instead of having an operation, be treated with chemo or radiotherapy. We all want our children to be happy, healthy and be successful. This has brought all this home to me, especially after our trips to the Children's Unit of The Royal Marsden. I remember sitting there whilst H was having bloods taken. There were children sitting round us pale, almost jaundice looking, bald hooked up to IV's.........but smiling and playing. I sat there and fought real hard not to cry, but failed. One of the little lads looked at me and asked if I was alright?? I couldn't speak, for fear of making a complete arse of myself and frightening him with my outburst of tears. H put her hand on my arm and said, "mum, what will be, will be" from that moment it has given me strength, hope and acceptance. My Hannah has remained very calm, strong and taken it all in her stride. I wish I were more like her.........I've been a nervous wreck since. One thing to remember though............if you think you're having a bad day, go visit the children in the unit and then say again how bad your day was.

 

My thoughts for any raised monies would be to the children's unit at The Royal Marsden. The building looks sad, tired and warn out. The wards and waiting rooms could do with a lick of paint. The children's play area could do with some brand new toys. It's sad enough to see a poor little one go through all that and then have to play with broken toys. It broke my heart and I didn't want there little spirits to be broken.

 

Love and hugs

Claire

So does anyone know the score on tickets? Are we having a club stand this year??

Ticket information, that I've found, hope it's of use to everyone....

 

 

Advance tickets are £11.00 per person for the entire weekend (even if you choose to stay for one day). Entry on the day is £15.00 per person for the entire weekend (even if you choose to stay for one day).Under 12s are £6 in advance or £10 on the day for the entire weekend

Please send a cheque for the correct amount made payable to The Organisation (marketing & events) Limited to:The Organisation. Roymur House, Anchor Hill, Knaphill, Surrey. GU21 2HP

 

 

They are just in the next village from myself and the Lady in charge is Claire Williams

 

I think it's too late now to get even further discount on tickets by ordering via a club form and they were only giving a further discount on groups of 10 tickets bought at one time. I think the cut off date for group club discounted tickets was the 31st of May.

 

Regards

Well they shold do as time is running out. :headvswal :D

Well, I'll be at both weekends anyway :D A good chance to meet up with the guy's n gals that arn't from the Midlands area.

 

I'm just surprised, yet again, at the lack of non-regular atendees that haven't, as yet, put their names down for any of the events this year.

Oh well, hopefully there will be plenty to see anyway :D

Oh I don't know, I thought that happened EVERY YEAR!!!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

 

 

 

 

 

And I don't just mean that in jest, it really does happen every year!

So does anyone know the score on tickets? Are we having a club stand this year??

 

Perhaps as a REO you could ask the NEO :confused: :confused:

To be honest I'm with Dave-zed on this one only 12 people have there name down for one of the biggest jap car meets of the year what a poor showing :(

 

 

Come on where's that spirit of joining in and having a laugh. Catching up with everyone and having some fun at JAE. The Zed can't be left out, more Zed's seen at JAE the better. :D :D

 

Don't you want people to see how big this club really is come on role up lets have a big presence. :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:

We have moved our summer event this year to Billing. That is why the numbers are far lower than previous years.

But it doesn't mean we shouldn't also be able to have a good showing at JAE after all if the Zed is missing what a shame :(

 

There are more than enough people to have a realy good showing at both events.

 

Some of us will be at both :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:

The club isn't saying members shouldn't go to both events. What we are saying is that all our efforts this year are focused on the Billing event, as we're supporting the Z Clubs 30th Anniversary, with a view to make it a permanent switch if it's a success.
