2016 Calendar

[Bulldog Bri]

Now that showtime and track days are here again and the sun is starting to shine, I'm starting my search for pictures for next years Calendar.

All 100 I had made up for 2015 have now all gone. And I'm hoping this time, to be able to get them done this year in plenty of time for next year.

So get that camera snapping and send me your entries.

When would you need them by Bri?

I thought the calendars were great (I bought 4!!). Couple of suggestions if you are open to ideas?

I noticed there were no days of the week on the main month part on each page, quite handy to have them. Also maybe some info on each car featured, make, model, engine, interesting facts or stats maybe?

I know a lot of work goes into doing things like this, so well done Bri, I can't wait for my 2016 edition!

[Bulldog Bri]

Thanks for the suggestions I will see if they can be on the next one, Maybe along with Queens Square and club meets as well.

Hoping to get all entries in by the end of Sept, (Oct latest) to get them printed in plenty of time this year.

So get your cameras out (when the sun finally arrives) and send me your pics

Great idea.

I have been promised a very interesting picture of my car with a certain blonde friend, we shall see if she is a girl of her word!! 

[Bulldog Bri]

Is that a form of bribery to get your car in the calendar?

I can work with that

Whatever it takes Bri, whatever it takes!!!!

I've started collecting photo's now for next years calendar. So get snapping peep's and send your entries to me.

It would be good to feature Go Inspire in at least one pic.

Was thinking of having the Go Inspire logo on each page somewhere.

Cheers Steve (FHO) for his entries for the calendar.

Cheers Steve (FHO) for his entries for the calendar.

No probs Bri, (October is my birthday month btw!!) hahahahaha!!!!

[Bulldog Bri]

I'll bear that in mind.

[Bulldog Bri]

Come on everybody! I'm hoping to get the calendars ordered sometime in October, so there will be plenty of time to get yours before the new year.

If you've got a decent piccy of your car send it to me via email (full file size) to get it in the running for the calendar, hopefully there will be some more good weather before the end of this summer so get snapping guys. Some lovely scenery around Tintern Abbey could make for some great pics   so far I have just 3 pic's,

We've got some fantastic cars in our club, lets show them off as the calendars do end up nationwide.

[Moleman]

Did you see any of the ones from Highnam Court? 

[Iancider]

Bri,

Crash Test Dummy has taken some good ones but doesn't have the time to sort them - hoping to send you some over the weekend.

Ian

[Bulldog Bri]

Did you see any of the ones from Highnam Court? 

Yes I did, and I'm looking to possibly use one as the cover photo.

[Bulldog Bri]

Starting to get near the date I need to send the pics off for next years calendar (end of Sept)

At the mo, I have 1 for the cover and 3 months sorted. so just another 9 pics needed. All those that have said they have some for me can you please get them over to me asap. so final decisions can be made.

Remember, I need files attached so I get the full file size. No links to pics or inserted in the email.

[Moleman]

I have some but I think you have enough of mine by now. 

[fullpint]

Took a couple on Saturday so will email them over to you Bri..

[Dixie]

What email address do you want the photos sending too?

Mark

[Bulldog Bri]

My email for those that need it is

brianvigor@hotmail.com 

Looking forward to seeing those pics.

[Bulldog Bri]

Cheers Mark, Steve, Steve and Dave for you pics. Only 3 more months to cover.

Ian, Crash test and Ed, if you've got any track day pic's to send over that would be good.

[Lucky Ed]

Bri, I have emailed you a selection of photos to look at - or throw darts at, it's up to you

[Bulldog Bri]

Ed I've checked my email. Nothing through from you did get some from Ian. Thanks.

[Lucky Ed]

Bri. I've sent it again to brianvigor@hotmail.com - is that correct?

If it is you might want to check your spam folder

[Gary RH7]

Bri,
Just sent you one of mine to your email address. Let me know if you got it.

Cheers,
Gary

[Bulldog Bri]

Yep. Gary and Ed I've got the emails now and added them to the pile

[paintman]

Well hurry up then as we can't call you Paintman if that is the one thing you can't get done.  or we will have to call you "waiting to be paintman" instead. 

[benchmark51]

Call him primer man then.

[paintman]

It's being done by my son at his paintshop.....the insurance company has paid him to prep and spray it but he hasn't got round to it yet, he's been busy with a bare metal respray and restoration on a Ferrari 308 which has wrapped up the last 4 or
5 week.

I'm getting the Nose-cone sprayed in high gloss black with Holographic coloured micro-flakes incorporated in the lacquer
layers to match the wings and body.

Now that does sound good!!! Can't beat a great paint job.

I stumbled across a massive bikers meet at Cog Mill Farm near Frampton Cotterell earlier this afternoon. It's on all night, they are camping there. Hundreds of bikes some with really interesting paint jobs. I took some pics and will post them up in the next day or two as soon as I can. I half expected to bump into Lucky ed or Hairy Santa on his Harley!

It one of the few times I felt small!! I'm 16 1/2 stones yet more than half the guys there made me look small!!!

['The Gaffer']

I've sent you a mail Bri.

The Hoods' going to Reef Paint Shop next week to get it done......

[Moleman]

Glad to hear it mate. 

[Bulldog Bri]

Last call for any late entries, I do have a pic now for every month. But if you still have a pic you wish for consideration for the 2016 calendar, shout now

Any that do not quite make it this time will get moved to the file for the 2017 calendar. So top quality pics please or they won't make it in

[Facial Hair Optional]

I'm hoping to take a few either today or tomorrow Bri ok. 

[Bulldog Bri]

Ok Peep's, here's what I've got already.
