This has been discussed a little on other threads but may have been missed by some. We are planning to have a small get together at our old haunt The Trading Post this thursday to celebrate the life and tragic death of Richard. Steve should be bringing along some memorial stickers, the procedes from which has been donated to Cancer Research. I know there are various national tributes being planned, including a relay convoy from Land End to John 'O Groats which we need to discuss the WYIOC participation in.

Sorry for the late notice, but I do hope as many as possible can make this.

 

excellent trading post

Me for one Dave

 

Beat me to it with the thread...

I'll be there. (may need a lift home though...probably for the last time)

 

7:30 ish?

 

ill try to come, and on time too if poss...

 

Sad news indeed.
I'll try and bob down for a quick drink to 'BURNSY'.
Mark

 

Nice one Dave. I was going to post a separate thread, but thought Steve's sticker thread would be read by everyone anyway.. No harm in advertising a little more

See you all at 7:30

Andy, Mick.. Anyone need a lift?

 

Al u could pick me up from leeds if u want to...

 

Ali. You'll notice your name wasn't inlcuded mate

I was trying to be considerate, but not putting myself out too much, in an selfish and unselfish way. It's a difficult line to walk and I would have pulled it off if hadn't been for you...

Now that you've put me in an awkward position and I find myself riddled with guilt.. Do you need a lift?

 

thanks but i think the subaru will be able to make the meet no major problems yet, if it does not then ill pop down in something else, thanks for the offer though....
Does anyone want picking up from my side or the area?..

 

I'll be there (lateish), no stickers arrived yet, hopeing they will arrive tomorrow afternoon (I get my post anytime 12:00 to 2.00pm )
If not there's always next week & although I can't make that I'll get them to someone who can/is.

 

I'm hoping to get there but maybe not for the start as I could be on both an early & late at work and no point charging round a certain corner...

 

Stickers Arrived

 

 

 

Yes us better late than never just got home from work...

 

where is the meeting point?

 

Has anybody got one of those portable DVD players with a screen, got a DVD with some footage of Richard in a Scoob, I'll bring it along for you peeps to watch.
I think Al had one in his car at the NBO, might have to sqeeze in to one car ! How many people can you get in a Scoob?
C U L8TR.
Mark.

 

Sticky sorry about money for plates, will bring it when we pick u up..

 

Cheers mate. May even be able to afford to eat now

Bath running right now. Hair may still be wet when you arrive, might need to make up some story if we arrive and I look like I've just been sh4gged

 

The Trading Post, Phoenix Way, Whitwood, Castleford. Just off J.31 M62. More details HERE

Mark, I'll bring my laptop for viewing DVD's

See you all in 30-60 minutes I hope you're all wearing your Xmas piggies

 

Hi Sticky, could I have a couple of those Santa Piggy stickers too please, in exchange for a pint or two.
Cheers Mark.

 

Great to see everyone Thanks to Steve for arranging the stickers (and to Sticky for offering to do higher quality ones ). Looking forward to next week now

 

Sticky, after last night's vids, this should be right up your street... (from an Autosport show flyer email)

McRae’s Battle in the Live Action Arena:* The indoor extravaganza pits “Davids against Goliaths”* from the world of rallying, two Goliaths from the 80s in the form of Jimmy McRae, still the most successful British Rally Championship competitor of all time, will come head to head with arch-rival, Russell Brookes. Unbelievably, both are being reunited with their original cars. McRae in the 6R4 Rothmans Metro and Brookes in the Mk2 Escort.** The young guns should give an equally gripping performance with Alister McRae pitting his skills against Martin Rowe both in identical Subaru Imprezas.

 

Good night last night, thanks to Dave and Mark for the vids, although a few more would have been nice, Dave might I suggest getting more of this.....

 

Fu' ckoffs (sp?) and colds.

5 years off use & abuse on that battery and it can only hold about an hours charge now Especially when running DVD's at full brightness and volume so it can be heard and seen by so many in a noisy pub Donations towards an new 17" widescreen G4 Powerbook graciously accepted though

 

And pray tell how long you think it would take me to fill one that size?

"Freshly squeezed" becomes "Completely drained"

 

Ah... the Trading Post. The place we used to be able to go to.

 

You can go to the Foxglove if you like.

 

Bubba. TBH mate, that's one of the reasons we keep having the impromptu meets there as it's better for you, Steff & Paul and a few others too...

Keep an eye out and come along to the next one...
