Hi Stormin Norman,
Â.
Thats a bit harsh on your bathroom buddy! :-)

I bet next time you snore on a Bristol Trip he will send you to sleep in the bath.

Greetings to you both via the Forum from Sunny Spain.

I was misinformed about the previous appearance of the 450 and reproduced the information in good faith. The posting has already had a good response with people who were unaware of the talk taking place now interested in attending the event. One member rang me from Canada and has booked his flight to UK solely to attend the talk.

Your criticism, aside from being an overreaction, from was not something that I had expected to be published on an open forum from a friend. Were I in your position a word on the telephone or a private email would have been my approach and the decent thing to do, rather than an attempt at a public put-down. Should you ever decide to assist the Heritage Trust in print please be careful with your facts, spelling and grammar. You may expect no mercy from me if I discover an error.

Thanks to everyone who pointed out to me that the 450 race car has appeared in public once since 1996, at Goodwood. My posting should, of course, have read " the second time that this car has been seen in public since 1996 ".

This still makes the car's second appearance in 14 years a rare event. If you don't see it this time around who knows when the next opportunity will arise ? This, coupled with talks by three Bristol experts, must mean that the Heritage event at Haynes Museum on 24th. October is a day not to be missed.

Hi David,
.
Carol and I are in Spain until Mid November. If a CD is made of the presentation AKA the one by Toby on the Fighter, I would love a copy.Thanks for the update, I am sure Stormin Norman will be pleased!. :-)

Hi,
We would also love to be there in November (and see the 450 in the
flesh...wow) but If we were to tell our bank manager that we are going to
the UK for another Bristol event he would cut us from our pensions!!!!!!
If there is another CD possible we would be very happy to pay.

Thanks

Sarah and Anthony

Talking about CD´s, are there any plans for a Britols 100 compilation?????
Perhaps we could all participate and send in material including Goodwood?
