Woodvale Rally

[Rubber_Man]

If anyone is available Friday, mid PM tonwards, to help rake up the grass on the display area it would be much appreciated. The farmer will come and cut the grass at about 15.30 hours, so we then need to rake up the cuttings and dispose of them

The diaplay area is 60M X 40M, although we needn't rake up under the race track area.

Hi All, I have actually arranged for James to arrive at 4.00pm-probably take 25/30 mins to cut the grass,then it is my intention to place the straw bales in position in 2 lines directly from his trailer-I hope to be be there 3.30 ish. I will bring my trailer to help move the grass to the edge of the field.

Thanks to everyone who came alomng this weekend to Woodvale Rally, both as one of the band of helpers who were there both Saturday to erect and Sunday to man the stand, and take down at the end of the event, and to all entrants. Thanks to everyone who came along to the BBQ on Saturday evening, and to our magnificent chefs David & Mike. Thanks to all the ladies who served hot and cold drinks, Danish pastries, cakes and biscuits all weekend, and to everyone who made our many visitors to our display feel so welcome. Thanks to all your efforts in putting the themed display together of Porsche racing in 1961 and to everyone who dresssed in period costume. This tremendous effort from all our club members all weekend resulted in us winning 3rd place in the car club display, only beaten by our regular main competitors Leyland Mini Club (Runner Up ) and Land Rover (1st Place). Lets start planning what to do next year, it will soon be Woodvale 2012. Many thanks David

Yes, but thank you too David. Fabulous day, great banter with great people. For me, the presence of the lovely 997 sports classic and gorgeous 911 speedster were the icing on the cake to a wonderful display. George's 944 cab looked great too. It was a shame to miss r18's favourite guards red 964 though. Good drive there and back if somewhat held up by the (almost prize winning) 996 turbo of Mr Heney. At least x factor's Jamie Wilson was just a passenger today... When I was on top gear I never mentioned it. But my lap in my spyder dressed as the stig was quicker than an M3 if I recall!!!

PS, David, www.ormskirkmotorfest.com has info about the event on 28th august, looks like an f1 car will be driving around the closed street circuit!

pah! held up? clearing the way for you more like!! [] by the way the Jamie 'topgearXfactorallroundsuperstar' Wilson overalls are now for sale on ebay [] best line of the day?? to the guy with the lambo "when I was on top gear last week" Priceless.......[][][][] great day, great company...typical R18 event []

 

[rob.kellock]

Ooh, how much are the overalls? Touched by the hand of Jamie (swoon)!! I did quite like the look on Lambo man's face when you replied, poker faced "what, don't you recognise him off the TV?" []

 

[macandsue]

Yes let us organise it quickly. I don't mind as long as it doesn't involve me climbing up a 20ft scaffold in a force 8 with rain drops the size of sheep droppings and Brittania Rules the Waves at full volume from two 1k speakers one inch from my ear whilst securing Fiona with zip ties to the scaffold. She is a big girl you know she had never been out in the rain before and had a right monk on and to cap it all her leg fell off in my hand "Your Honour" Idea for next year book a space for one car , place a plaque in the middle have FI standing by and write , There is a Porsche Buried Here!!!! , 1st Prize guaranteed. This is Mac .

 

[vitesse]

Can somebody explain to me -what is all this "Jamie" X factor or Top Gear stuff-also what or who is FI? I have been thinking of a theme for next year but it does involve us having use of a KN Uncertain of Formby.

ORIGINAL: VITESSE Can somebody explain to me

Yes. Yes I can. So could Jeremy []

 

[macandsue]

Well you see, its like this the , model who occupied our start grid is called FIONA, commonly girls called FIONA have their name shortened to Fi ,but with her Father being a petrol head he decided to call her FI as in FI, that is short for Formula One where very expensive cars follow each other around a race track. Occasionally they have been known to overtake. It must have been the bang on the head Colin !!!! Get well soon. Mac

 

[vitesse]

OK-OK-OK-I didn't know blow -up dolls reproduced & there was me thinking I was getting better

Yes,yes I could......but it would be better coming from Jamie 'sorryi'mbusytalktomyagent' Wilson himself surely?? [][]

 

[vitesse]

I'm non the wiser! & there's me thinking how erudite Jeremy & Rob can be (if they want of course)[8|]

 

[rob.kellock]

Now which Shakespeare play did you lift that phrase from,Rob?[8|]

That well known sonnet the "Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy" [] Jeremy is right, it's about time young Jamie explained himself on here. Last I heard, he was off looking at Lamborghini Gallardos with his new mate Louis Walsh...

 

[ray stobbs]

i see larul and hardy were not just at woodvale they have now taken over the furum is that opposite to overtake

 

[rob.kellock]

We can only try Ray. Is Jeremy Oliver?
