I receiver an e-mail today from Tony Hodson on behalf of the TVR workers. Here it is.

TVR workers said said:


On behalf of the workforce at TVR,I would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone concerned for the tremendous gesture of support shown by the TVR owners on Friday, it meant so very much to us all.
To think that people had travelled the length and breadth of the country to be there in Blackpool, the true home of TVR, to register their support for the workforce in these difficult times, was truly overwhelming.
A tremendous effort on behalf of the owners and not least the organisers, a gesture that was so very, very much appreciated by the workforce.
This is what TVR means to so many, many people and we applaud you all.
Thank you all for a fantastic and most memorable day.

Tony Hodson
Union Convenor TVR




shout THANK YOU ALL

Says it all, I'm sure it will bring a tear to the eye of the enthusiasts who were there. It was the least we could do for our friends (note this is the right word!) in the factory workforce. Many, many thanks for the message. clap

We now need to build on the momentum.

We had a great day out. And we were all totally gobsmacked with the turn out of guys and gals from the factory, I had several long chats with many of them at the pub (an especially long one with Gerbil!!hehe)Got that man can talk!! no offence Gerbil mate, despite what your fellow workers saidhehe.( Dave Owner of a midas Gold or is it yellow? T350c). Remember me now Gerbil??
Thanks very much for those words of appreciation, you lot were well worth the long drive up from Essex.
Good luck in the future to you all and your families
I was the guy in the Blue Griff that shouted out that "We love you all"

I could have done with a word with the paint god, Gerbil, myself but didn't get to speak with him. Never mind, one day.

Below is a copy of my earlier posting on another thread - I would just like to add I was amazed at the reception we received from the guys and gals in Bristol Avenue it was truly humbling and something I shall never forget and whatsmore I have been astounded at the response from everyone who was there on the day - as Winston Churchill once said

"A love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has strengthened nations in their hour of peril."

which summed up Friday for me - GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL AND THANK YOU FOR TVR it is we that are endebted to you

More pics of a truly memorable day (just wish it had been under happier circumstances) and many thanks to all those that put soo much effort into making yesterday happen, all those who made the effort to get there,but mostly to all the workforce for not only bringing us the cars we enjoy but for making yesterday one of the most emotionally charged days of my TVR ownership!
WELL DONE GUYS AND ALL THE BEST FOR THE FUTURE - whatever it brings

From a non-TVR owner just a quick 'hats off' to you guys, I saw the TV report on the interweb and was touched by your enthusiasm and their pride. Good one.

Best wishes to the families for the future.
