Title: AFTER Harewood 2009
Post by Snoopy on Jun 21st, 2009, 5:18pm
Well what a fantastic sight all those Scorpios, Granadas Pumas, Mondeos,  Fiats, Volvo's jaguars, Mercs   etc etc, on our plot No. 16, but joking apart it was a fantastic meet with the People from the Unleashed and the Scorpio site meeting up. A BIG thank you to Lee and Trev from unleashed for organising the tickets etc for us.

I meet some new faces and was able to put names to those who I had not met before.

The whole day was fine sunny and warm and the forum benefited cash wise from a small profit we made on the group booking and some serious donations to the forum from several members amounting to £45.
I won't name them to save any embarrassment, but overall the forum has gained £70 which I will pay over to Steve in the USA.

I hope some one took some pictures and can post a couple.
Thanks to all who attended, paid for tickets, and made donations, it really was a super day.

A big thank you to everyone for your contributions towards the running of the site. Things were getting a bit tight last month as I guess everyone is suffering with the economy - it's equally as bad over here as companies go out of business every day but we soldier on in 'survival mode' until things recover.

Glad you had fun at Harewood - I miss the meetings with the old Scorpio and I guess there are fewer each year until they get their 'cult' status. I mean who would have thought that a 70's MkIII Cortina would ever be a cult car :)

We need someone to write a TV series with the Scorpio as the star car!!

Maybe call it "radiators to Timing Chains " or something!! ;D

A really good day as dave has said...... I'll post some pics in a while

It was nice to meet so many for the first time.  I am still unsure about being given a conducted tour of the Gozz hearse, especially on our first meeting when he realised that I lived on his patch.  :-/ :-/
