    Default YDC Urgent Announcement!

    Hi All

    Due to change in home situation I am sadly. no longer going to be around much at all for the YDC

    I regret to drop this one from a great height but my circumstances have changed massively in the last few weeks so I need to take a step back from just about everything.

    Any comments on how we all go forward with YDC and related stuff will be most welcome

    No worries. I used to think I didn't have enough hours in a day and now my days appear to have got even more hectic xxx

    To be quite honest I think the YDC isn't really viable any more, there were so few people supporting it in the end. So many of our kind and generous members passed away and like both of you my circumstances have also changed since Covid halted YDC proceedings.
    It's a shame as it was such fun and we raised so much money for good causes over the years but unless there was a massive show of interest then maybe it's time to retire it ?

    The YDC started up in different times, With Yorkie's Daft Competition.

    You are right. Sometimes we have to move with the changes and do things differently.

    The fundraising here is still going on. My most recent purchase was from a charity auction and I tend to shop more regularly with sellers here who are already 'out there' doing tons of good stuff in their own communities.

    That's a shame, was looking forward for YDC starting up again properly and listing more things for it.

    Maybe YDC rules need changing/updating?

    There aren't enough people to make it viable in my view. I have no idea what changes and updates would increase the number of people involved.

    I won't be around as a coordinator due to changes in my home responsibilities so it's a bit of a mess right now

    Bumping this up to allow more time for someone to jump in to take over from me if they think it's a viable option.

    I'm about to move on from eBid as a seller too, so will only be around to chat, and help out with stuff when asked
