HON. SECR:- J Baldwin, 25 Forge Rise, Uckfield, E Sussex TN22 5BU (01825 768193)
EDITOR:- W Clapham, 26 Dunoon Rd, London SE23 3TF (0181 699 5949)
News, Views & Results of Blackheath Harriers, 56 Bourne Way, Hayes, Bromley, Kent (Tel 0181 462 3115). Unless otherwise attributed, views are those of the Editor.
*****************************************************************
WHAT NEXT
            Following on from the last two Couriers, the Committee are informing readers that the talks with Bromley AC have broken down and there will be no more efforts made in the near future.
            Your Committee, particularly the Officers involved, are extremely disappointed at this outcome, and still feel it is not the most favourable situation for the athletes of both clubs, or athletes generally in the Borough of Bromley.
            However it has now opened the way for some initiatives covered by a development paper written by Mike Martineau to be put into operation. These were in fact put on hold due to the possible merger, since it was felt better to action them in conjunction with Bromley, rather than in opposition.
            It has been agreed to concentrate our efforts on development plans for the Women's Section and Young Athletes, and a review of Membership categories, together with the production of an information brochure.
            It is planned to convene three separate meetings during January to cover these topics. The dates will be Monday 17th, 24th and 31st at 7.30pm in the Clubhouse. The Women's Section meeting will be on the 17th and invitations have gone out to all female members. Anyone else is welcome to attend. If you are interested to participate in any topic please keep in touch with the Secretary for confirmation of details of the later meetings.
            In addition to the topics covered by the original paper, the possibility has been put to the Committee, for discussion at its meeting of 10th Jan, of changing the Club name to "Blackheath Harriers Bromley". The proposal is not related to the recent merger talks, but is essentially a move to give the Club a closer identity to the geographical area in which we are based. It is similar to other clubs, notably "Sale Harriers Manchester". If agreed by the Committee in January it will be included on the AGM agenda. Any views should be passed to the Secretary, or other members of the Committee before 10th Jan.

TWO DOWN, ONE TO GO
            The Mobmatches were lost against SLH and Orion. Our turnouts of 43 and 36 respectively were our lowest for some years, though Roy Smith won at Chingford to retain the Davis Cup.
            Mark Watling took the Ponsford Pewter and also won the Vets Mobmatch at Coulsdon; another low turnout. New Vet Nick Kinsey won the Browning Tankard in our Club Vets' Championship held in conjunction with the Kent AA Vets at Beckenham Place Park.
            There was a solid 5th in the ECCU relay, some good individual runs from Heathens in various guises and a promising start by the YAs. Meanwhile the Bennett was cooking up.
            We returned to our "home" at a refurbished Beckenham Baths for the Maryon-Wilson swimming championship.

CROSS-COUNTRY FIXTURES - PLAN B (or is it C?)
            An Open 10Km will be held at Hayes on 15th Jan replacing the one "lost" on 11th Dec. This will be a Bennett Cup event.
            Any vet who wants to be entered for the SEAA Vets XC Championship at Halton nr Tring on 4th Mar should contact John Baldwin well in advance.
