Tim Bancroft Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 HI all, Sadly after a comprehensive re-review of costs for the forthcoming RBRR, we have been forced to increase the Entry Fee from £100.00/person up to £110.00 per person when Entry opens on 10/02/23. We very much regret that we have to do this and do hope that this change does not discourage any Crew from entering the RBRR. Obviously, should anyone who wants to enter have anything to discuss or ask about this, please contact me via this site or via my mobile phone no.which can be found on page 4 of Club Torque.

Tim Bancroft Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 Right after much consultation, the Club has reverted to £100.00 per entrant, so the minimum entry cost is £200.00. Apologies for the confusion, the RBRR Organisers and the Committee were not happy about the slight increase, so we had a chat! Potential entrants may wonder why we have reduced from the £125 of 20/21. The simple answer is that quite a few entrants are not that fussed about Finisher Souvenirs: Tankards or Picture Frames, so we have decided that should Finishers want a Souvenir, they can approach our supplier and purchase separately. It will all be set up to make it easy to obtain them. As those who have received them over the past 57 years know, they are individually engraved with the name of the successful entrant upon them with their entrant no. We must have issued nearly 2750 souvenirs over that period! I will still collect the souvenirs and they will be handed out at the CT Dinner in March 2024. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyb Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Paying for the finishing trophy at the end is a great idea. Especially if like my last RBRR you don't finish. Money saved 🤣 Danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJim Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Did you ask for a refund? As a Scot, you have to look after the bawbees. Jim. Note: Once we have independence, the bawbee will be the currency of Scotland for those of you who don't know what a bawbee is.

Batch Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 ....and what's the exchange rate between Scottish pennies and english pennies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 Danny, I only order Souvenirs for those who finish. For some worthy types who fail, we offer them 'Endeavour Awards' . Its just some don't really want a Finisher Souvenir. New ruling: Any Scotsman or Scotswoman who enters will have their entry vetted and if they don't get the required score, their entry will be refused...er bad luck, Jimbo!

McJim Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I can see the border at Carter Bar will be temporaily closed this October if this continues and crews anti Scottish comments on social media and elsewhere will be a reason for their deportation. We're getting fed up with English people coming over the border. Economic migrants looking for a better standard of living. Trump was right. Build a wall. By the way did you know that it wasn't the Romans who built Hadrians Wall to keep the Scots out but it was the Celts trying to keep the English out. Little known fact that. Suas Alba. Jim. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrapman Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 The Celts appear to have build the wall in England, thus annexing part of it. We know what happened last time someone tried that don’t we. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
