Linda Blansjaar

Club Shop & Website Support

I manage the AMOC Shop – and have been doing so since 2011.

I moved to the UK about 16 years ago from my native Amsterdam straight to the tiny village of Drayton St. Leonard where AMOC HQ is based. Quite a change! I bought a pair of wellies, took up bellringing and I'm a regular at the local pub – so yes, I feel at home on this beautiful island.

Best things about my job: I love to be part of this passionate, international community. The enthusiasm and dedication of our Area Reps and other volunteers is truly inspirational. I also like the challenges that come with being “a department of one” which means a lot of variation in my daily tasks. I love retail and beautiful colours and I feel privileged to work in a place where people come to enjoy and share their passion.

Kerry Clamp

Finance & Operations Manager

Hello, my name is Kerry and I have been with the Club since June 2018.

My job title is Finance Manager, but as part of the small team at HQ, you really do have to turn your hand to anything. One day you are working on a spreadsheet, the next you may be standing at the gate in the rain at 7:30am, ready to let the Concours entrants in to start preparing their cars.

As a member of the staff, I am a window into the Club. I believe that it is my responsibility even though I am finance based, to assist and support members, and our amazing volunteers, regardless of their query. If I do not know the answer, then I will find someone who does.

My character is very much like a dog with a bone. I do not like it when things do not work or are not right. I will do my very best to investigate, and to find the solution.

Please come and say "Hello" at our next event or get in touch via info@amoc.org if I can be of any help.

Phil Rablin

Photographer

Living on the South Coast near to Goodwood Motor Circuit with wife Tracy and cat Monty, I have always had a passion for cars, particularly Aston Martins, being a Club Member since the Jubilee Year of 1995 and photographer since 1998. I did own a 1969 DBS/6 for a number of years before the engine went bang. Currently, I have a Jaguar XJS Celebration coupe but always watching the classifieds and auctions.
