True Grip, well done Spooks 10/10


Recommended Posts

Just read it.  Great article Spooks and I even got a mention.  You've captured the spirit of the day superbly [:P]  [Y]

Must admit I am disappointed with the rest of the content.

Understand the difficulties involved in producing the mag, difficult jobs the editors have in choosing which articles go into the current edition etc etc but I am getting more disillusioned with the amount of coverage other regions get and the amount of adverts that are in it. 
Fair enough trips to Europe should be highlighted but to have 2 separate articles on such road trips?

Makes me wonder why I bother writing articles for submission.

Will Scottish Scoobies will ever get the recognition of how successful we are in the big world of SIDC? [:D]

Spot the faces to names competition for us newbies.

The left hand photo on page 14 shows a bunch of faces.

Ok, Rosie in the middle, Squirell, 2 in from right. Graham farthest left.  ? 8 in from the left giving the 'look left' police mugshot [:D] and Hmmm.. seen 6 in from the right somewhere! (possibly at a Shell garage near you - Fridays only to pick up his double points of course !) 

But wheres Imy?

Names to faces please.

Alan.

Was wondering why I hadn't got mine & then realised that my memebrship has probably expired.

Remind me again someone - how do I go about checking (the membership card is in the car & I haven't got the car at the moment) and if it's expired how do I renew it?

Excellent write up Scott, although some more coverage of the Scottish area would be nice.

I even got a wee mention after my Falcon trip in the mildy moist conditions

Many thanks for the thumbs up, aint got my copy yet and in fact recieved an email in the in the past few days as my membership is about to expire so I may not get it until I update my membership, but curious to see how it all turned out in layout etc........ and I really cant remember what I wrote. I just hope it gave everyone the credit they deserved

Got a few things that I wanna send down to see if the magazine will publish, once I finish them......... at the mo its on the severe back burner, but thats normal.

Anyways I got some stuff to do so scuse for now

T/G arrived this morning,firstly well done to Spooks,very well put together article,but i had a quick skim over the other articles and i have to agree with Imy(micra wrc)

While  the road trips are interesting reading i think 4 full pages (euro combo 2006 )and 2 pages (Spa-tra-la-la.06)are a bit much in the same issue.And i know the advertisers are who ultimately pays for the magazine,but,Cheam Subaru and Dynotile,.....4 PAGES!...its no wonder theres a backlog of members articles waiting to be published.Surely smaller ads or flyers in the mag(which Dynotile had also)would make some room for smaller more compact members stories,as it is a "drivers club",i would have thought that its the "drivers" tales and adventures that gets the priority????

Then again if my Lotto numbers come up tonight i'll be on the phone to Dynotile in the morning!!!!
