Thought I would get the ball rolling by nominating.

1. The McRae Gathering Team - Grant, Imy and Andy

Heh... Apologies if I've missed anyone.. but can't think of any other group/individuals who deserve the award more this year!

Although.. can we really nominate the squiggle for the same award two years running :D

It's not going to take a Eurovision style call round the nations to get their votes for this one. Don't call Taggart, don't call Columbo. This is an open and shut case if ever there was one.

Don't be rediculous... I was just joking! :D

I admire your sincerity but you were part of the team and all you guys deserve it..

Still thinking of other nominations... But can't think of what else that's gone on this year.. The Gathering has kinda dominated things.. What about any events/knockhilly stuff that wen't on..?

However can I put myself forward for a Scottish Scoobies Golden Cock! award? (Ripped off from TopGear)

This year I :

- Fogot to ensure the wheel nuts were tight on my car before a run last November

- Cooked the brakes on the way back from a recce for the Highland Run.

- Had the Gear knob come off in my hand while down changing before a corner, on the way down to the Highland Run (Not fun)

- Hit a Deer (Damaged part of the front end (consmetically))

- Fell off the rolling road (Broke the rear suspension)

- Got it a bit wrong at Alford a week later and 'slightly' (cracked the splitter)

- Had my first proper "blonde" moment and reversed into a post last week whiel parking (got a slight ding in my rear bumper as a result) Seriously peed of with myself on that one!!

Sorry for going off-topic a bit...

Oh I know.. What about my sheep friendly neighbours in Aberdeen for their first Santa Cruise last christmas?

Oh! and what about JohnS and crew for going ahead with the Northern Big One at Alford this year despite the place turning into a building site virtually overnight!

Not for me either on this thnaks. Firstly, I'm never at home long enough to appreciate it and secondly it would get contaminated by my habitual chain smoking!

This maybe sounds a bit daft (i've got my tin hat and flame suit on lol) but is there no way, seeing as it's the 1st anniversary of the deaths, it could be awarded posthumously to Colin, Johnny, Ben & Graeme and displayed somewhere as a memorial for the duration of 2009 ?

Posted

Ari, the award is was done as a memorial to them, thats how it came about, so its for them no matter what individuals it goes to... :D

Yeah, I think that JohnS would be another one to add to the list, he does a lot of the club despite working all the hours that the devil sends, I know how busy he is, and still he always has time for the Club, time to organise the Knockhill track days and Alford of course.... :)

Could go outside the club - Dave Richards/the Prodrive team for allowing the use of the Prodrive facilities like that...?

5t.

"this will be an annual award presented to a member or group of members who have done outstanding service or support for the Scottish Scoobies or the General community on behalf of The Scottish Scoobies."

It really doesn't matter if the person has won it before. - Thanks for getting the framing done - looks minted really matches the picture well.

only other candidate that comes to mind is Imy for organising the highland run- can we give it to her twice?

Only one person or group of people will get the award , so not a problem.

Oh no he's a smoker - strike him off the list pronto - only kidding :D ... As long as you enjoy looking at it during your period then that's all that matters, and who's says you'll win :)

So so far we have.

1. The McRae Gathering Team - Grant, Imy and Andy

2. Imy - For the highland Runs.

3. John S - organsiing the sidc track days

The more on the list the better.

I wonder what the odds are at william hills.(credit crunch and all that) :)

Deffo the three Amigo's for me! :thumbup:

Aye... never made it myself due to other commitments but can't really see anyone else likely to "beat" them for it.

The McRae Gathering Team - Grant, Imy and Andy

Without a shadow of a doubt in my mind the forementioned peeps should be given an award, in fact some kind of special icon on these forums for the hard work and accomplishments they have achieved.

Edit, missed oot the names!
