Are there any willing Tivvers who can spare a Saturday morning in July to add to the small group taking the Groom, best man and ushers from Aylesbury to Nr Marlow?. The date is the 20th July and the timings tbc are from 9am to around 1100hrs. More cars will make the day more memorable for the Wedding group of which the Groom is my son. I am expecting the photographer to take some photos of the cars when at the destination which will be forwarded onto participants.
Here`s hoping for some volunteers with a few hours to spare. smile
Thanks.

Please don't take this the wrong way but if you're offering say, photos to the drivers of their cars form the day please do follow through with this. I've helped out at 3 weddings now and won't do so again - 1 of them I, along with the other drivers was made to feel welcome, homemade cakes in the run up to it all made to say thankyou to us (Hi Lewis wavey) and a good day.
The other 2, felt unappreciated, promises of photos - nothing ever came and also no real thanks for doing so. Not that as a driver you expect anything but a token is always nice - you're giving up your time, fuel, coming a long way in some cases to help someone on their special day and it is nice to have a little appreciation.
