Hi folks

I've been in touch with Rolls Royce to try and arrange a factory tour, but they are totally booked up for the remainder of this year.

However, they are taking bookings for 2014 in a few months time - you need to book early!

So, if you are interested in putting yourself down for a tour, please put names and possible months available below. Not sure about any dates yet, but if I have some indication of roughly what dates might be doable to people, then I will see if I can match the majority.

So, if you are interested in a Rolls Royce factory tour for next year, put your name down. We can worry about specific dates nearer the time.

Cheers!

Roy C

Popular event tongue out

Thanks. Not sure of numbers yet, but will see when I talk to RR to set up the tour.

If there are restrictions, I'll do on first come, first served... ah, and me of course!

Cheers!

Guys, been in touch with RR, will be pushing this one for April if I can to leave the summer months free.

Been in contact with RR. The best date they can offer me is 11th April @ 1400 for 18 people.

So... I will need to trim the list slightly.

I know there are some people who can't make weekdays, so if you can't come, please knock your
name off as it will save me disappointing a few people rolleyes

Sorry, not one I can control this.

Hi folks

As numbers are oversubscribed to this tour, unfortunately, I need to cut about 5 people from those who have put themselves down.

There are a few options to do this.

  • If anyone is unable to make the date can you speak up now, so I can remove you.
  • If anyone has a +1 coming that is not a club member and could make the tour some other time (so next year), could they also speak up.
  • If that does not free up people, then unfortunately, I'll have to select a few names based on those I know who sometimes say they will come to an event, then do not and remove them from this event.
I'm happy to try and arrange another tour next year for those who were not able to get in this year, but RR do only offer a few tours a year at fixed numbers, so I can't promise anything.

Thanks!

Hi Tony

I can, but considering I have to remove a few people as it is, there is very little chance of getting in on this one, I'm afraid.

But we'll see.

Cheers!

Unfortunately, as stated earlier I've had to focus this even on TVRCC members to get the numbers down.

As such, a few people have decided to drop out. I might have one spare place, so might be able to add a +1 back.

Not certain yet, so bear with me...

Folks, a reminder that this one is next week.

I will NOT do a run-in for this event as to the last 3-4 ones I put together, no one comes along so
I'm just wasting my time doing them.

I will email out the address to go to in the next few days and the time to arrive (i.e. 1345 or something like that),
so you can make your own way there.

Remember, only those who are on the list can go. No one else will be allowed to join us at the event is booked out.

Cheers!
