60th Anniversary Linwood

Post by Macrootes »

Still looking for names for the Monday 1st May evening night meal. So far I have one notification of attendance.

Also, for Tuesday 2nd May Assembly, I have the usual suspects on my list. Have the scenic run road books and plaques to get printed. So, any more for any more?

I finally have an event location. Many thanks to the Marmalade Pot bar and restaurant for allowing (Friday) assembly in the car park facing the old office block. I chased two locations, one strung me along for months and then its a no from us. The other strung me along for four weeks before giving me a definitive answer; aye, its a no from us.

Hope to be there with Karen from Monday evening if I can fix the Stiletto in time for Coventry.

Unable to fix the Imp in time, so will not be attending Linwood - apologies for any inconvenience caused.

A fantastic day at Linwood today showing off our great little cars celebrating the 60 years from launch and here is the link from The Scotsman who were there today speaking to people who worked there and the owners of the cars.

Thank you Alex for organising the event and to Jim for sorting out the run from Edinburgh and Fife.

Cheers

Seems like we were on Tuesdays 6.00pm STV news at the end of the programme as well.
Catch it on the STV player app.

Cheers
