I'm sure I'm just expressing the feelings of all the members when I say how much your efforts (and those of Pedro and Liz) are appreciated. As you've already mentioned, this club is "one of the nicest corners of the internet..." (if proof were needed - http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=59601).

There's a real generosity of spirit here, which is lacking in most other forums, and I'd say a lot of that can be put down to your stewardship. Whoever takes over your position will have some very large Alpinestars to fill!

As Mr Gazza said, I think another attraction of the club is it's 'quaintness' and I'd be keen to keep that.

As to factory affiliation, I'm not particularly fussed either way but, if a name change is needed, why not keep the UKMOC initials and just change the 'O' from 'Owners' to, say, 'Obsessives'?

I can understand the decision you have made and as others have already said I am hugely appreciative of the efforts you have all made to make this the great place that it is.
good forums are more of a rarity in recient years as so many have moved to be Facebook based and lost all character.
I will follow and support whoever steps up to the mark.
