Tony

Are any Beta Boyz going this Year? Is the Tiddlywink BBQ on the cards?

Cheers

Eric (going to Bristol with hopefully 4 Montecarlos)

Hi Eric

Sadly no BBQ again this year  :'(
Unfortunately I will not be attending, Beta's still at the painters  ::) and I will be photographing at the London Rally for Heros event, just down the road from me.

not sure who else is going? but as you know we usually have a good turn out.
I will check with Mark, Mandy and Steve. if there going will ask if they can take the Beta Forum flag/pole

see you soon
cheers
Tony

Dear all,
Anne and I are attending, but sadly not with "Lulu". However as the theme this year is "Spiders and Scorpions" they are looking for as many convertibles and Abarths as possible. Therefore we are driving there in our Pininfarina Spyder instead. Will be great to meet up with any of you on the day. I know Lukas or his brother is coming, as he is bringing some parts for us!
Lets hope it is a good event once again.
best,
Chas and Anne. :)

Hi Lukas

Just got back from France and looks like it started today, blue skies, sunshine and into double figures temperature wise......

So hopefully it will last.

It was generally a good show, however there were no coupes, and HPEs  :(
The show is rather a static exhibition, and to me adding some dynamics, like a common passage through the city center would make a more significant impression.   8)

Dear Lukas,
Good to see you and your family at Bristol on Saturday. I hope you got back safely. I take your point about the static nature of the event, but it was fun anyway. Had you been here last year there were several coupes (inc Matts which won a prize), and our HPE VX. Love to see some photos of your HPE now it has been painted.
Great work.
Best,
Chas and Anne. :)
