waikiore 454 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I see the Squadron are heavily promoting a Christmas Race on the wednesday before Christmas, as if they have had one before? Not in my memory! Will we see the crew.org team there or was there something else coming up? Certainly the Crew.org rum is much to be preferred over the petrol they are currently pushing as rum at the squaddy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 398 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 My understanding is there wasn’t enough interest from us lot, so Squadron are running a fun, open to all cheap race for all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 454 Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 Sounds good, though I will miss the big dance nights with BP's daughter and her band . And watching the hollow carcasses drag themselves home around Westhaven Drive the next morning😆 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ex Elly 229 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 So have Squadron hijacked the crew.org race? Or has the editor handed this over? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,717 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 My guess is the first option Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 398 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Let’s hear from the editor, but believe it’s all in cahoots Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Editor 34 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 The short version is that we were too late organising it and the Squadron has filled the gap. The crew rum race will be back, but not this year unfortunately. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
