If I can work the logistics, I'll 'parade' the Moulton, but Lycra free (and that does not mean in the buff! :lol: )

Any thoughts on guest speakers again?

That's more of a ransom situation rather than charity, I feel! :lol:

How about a timed 'Engine in and out' challenge for two or more teams?

1) Fastest engine out and on the deck?
2) Fastest refit with the car up and running with a victory lap?

Bit of a pre lunch spectacle for removal and maybe post lunch for the refit??

A board with 100 squares with different times on it. Advertise it on the forum in advance. Buy as many squares as you wish.
The winner is the person with the most accurate guess at the winning time. Say £10/£20 a square?

Prizes? You boys seem to come up with some great prizes and maybe you could offer AA recovery for the losers :lol:

- Count the bristles on a boot board.

- Make a mankini from a roll of gold brocade. (The judge's decision is final)

Would it be possible to have a dedicated car/ project sales area,
with a donation to charity from any confirmed sales.
I haven't managed to visit recently due to work clashes ☹️
so this may already be a feature, apologies if it is.
I can make it this year happily.🙂.
