As above great news if your going to this now................

Hello again People,

 

Ok I’ve been keeping this up my sleeve until now but I want to let you all know how we are getting on overall with the relay.

 

There is now media interest, and I’ve been told that 5th gear covering the run.

VBH is reputed to be attending at Prodrive

and will do a stint on the run from there up. Details are sketchy as

always with this sort of thing so if that’s a no show then don’t lynch

me from Prodrives flagpole.

 

I have spoken to Richards’s father, Alex, a

number of times by telephone and he would like to bring one of Richards

cars from Autosportif up to Banbury,

And meet us all. I am really looking forward to finally meeting him.

Thank you to the Mark C at the RB5OC for bringing us all together.

 

I have just missed a couple of times the man

I need to talk to at Prodrive, but he is aware what is going on and

hopefully I can get him tomorrow, like I say we just need to cross the

Ts and dot the Is. He who plans early plans twice, and all that good

stuff.

 

Kames, our staging post into Gods country has become bigger than Ben Hur,

I wont steal Scoobays thunder, but he has

done an absolutely formidable job there, go to scottishscoobies events

thread and see what he has been up to, there is all sorts going on

there all day, including rides in rally cars. Del you’re a star.

 

JOG, is still getting the final polish,

unfortunately the people who were to do that end have had family

commitments pop up. Hopefully someone local will help, but im sure we

can make our own entertainment if a reception cannot be sorted. Im

damned if im going to let that spoil our moment of triumph.

 

Bob, the registration and T shirts would not

be what they are without your dedication and diligence. I couldn’t have

handled that as well, it’s a mammoth task, the help and advice as well

has always been fantastic.

 

Subaru UK are giving us a spec D to lead the

convoy, Ill start pumping them tomorrow as well. And if Shell won’t

sponsor the fuel Im sure BP will, I’ve been very disappointed with

Shell UK so far, but perhaps I haven’t been trying to blackmail the

right people.

 

All the relay stations are coming in and the picture is now clear.

There is just a gap between Kames and Aviemore that needs plugged.

You know who you are, lets have it sorted out. Im sure there is a plan, however If we don’t know then it’s still a gap. :)

 

That’s it. This has taken over my life for

the past 4 months. I’m sure once the dust settles there will be “You

could have done this, you could have done that….” Well I’ve done my

best and from where I stand it looks pretty good.

 

The media knows we are happening; it’s up to them now.

 

Let’s make the final push, give our sponsors

something to show off, give cancer research something to really help

them. And give one of Britain’s finest Drivers a memorial Relay to be

proud of.
