Raider Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 What would people like as a souvenir of their 10CR2005 ??)Nothing unsavoury please :oBear in mind that the entry fee of £50 is covering 3 Michelin road atlas, fantastic car stickers and any other incidental expenses so there isn't alot left over :'( This is of course consistent with the aim of keeping costs as low as possible.So some thoughts Polo shirts - probably too much at £15 each, that's £30 for a crew of 2 and the maps have cost over £20 :oT shirts - cheaper so possibleBrass plaque - maybe but I for one don't like sticking them on the car anyway. Tankards - too much, especially if engraved with individual names and too much hassle to sort out and post - Tim B will confirm :'(Engraved glasses? Just with 10CR2005 - may be affordableNice car sticker - no problem on the cost front but is it what we want?Ok - over to you for some more ideas.No souvenir is an option too!

Deleted User Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 a french version of our favorite meat based savory product? how about "lapan pasties" all round?Martin HRCR seem to like dishing out coasters to entrants? so must be quite cheap and we could get the ginsters logo put on them?!

Chris Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I like the idea of the engraved glasses.I actually prefer the idea of the tankards, but I can see how they'd be too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Well the 10CR gets to be better value all the time, personally I agree with Chris and think the glasses/tankards would be a good idea, but anything would probably be great. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GigGleR Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Yay! Glasses sound good, although actually I had thought about suggesting earlier that if someone has a suitable (preferably Digital, I should think) camcorder we could make up a DVD of the run, give a copy to each team and then sell some more thru the club.Just a thought :DEdit: also www.crystalnet.co.uk seems to have some passable offers on glass wear Engraved Whisky Glasses at £5.95 each or some small glass tankards (just to combine themes :D) at £6.40 each or £6.10 each per 100.Hope that is of some help to somebody :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don cook1 Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Glasses seem an odd souvenir...what if you don't wear glasses!Anyoldroadup. Brugge seems an excellent place to get some nice beer glasses engraved, they could be collected and handed out on the last evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Would have thought Don would have popped up to Amsterdam and found himself a Souvenir- cost about £25! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 See this is why I thought a rallylike plaque would be good - even if it were just to go in the back window (for those that have back windows!) I know the problem was attaching them - but how about some sticky pads on them? That way some can cable tie them on - some can use sticky pads.Polo shirt - we should buy those separate I think - they're going to be fantastic! Trust me!And who needs any more souvenirs than the memories!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger948cc Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I was under the impression we were buying the polo-shirts seperately anyway. Is there news on design? or, is this a secret? These will be a great souvenir which could be worn to promote the club when we stand around all day in fields at classic car shows; - this seems a sensible idea. What do you think Mr Bancroft ?

James Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Top secret! At least I think that was the idea... all you need to know is that they'll be v smart looking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 I wasn't sure what had happened with the polo shirts - mind you that's a great thing about the 10CR, sometimes things just happen!I think we'll be looking into engraved glasses - engraved as in "10CR2005" only, not with names of entrants.Now, where do I start with something like that :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger948cc Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Give us a clue James. What is the colour scheme ? or is there a choice of colours ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 So top secret even the organiser doesnt know about them...(at this moment even I don't know >fully< about them!)They'll be in one colour only...You will get a hint once I've redone the website...Patience... patience...

Deleted User Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Raider ,a good place to start looking at engraved glasses is your local trophy shop.The actual glass is not the expensive bit it's the set up for the design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 Quoted from jcarruthers So top secret even the organiser doesnt know about them...That's right - I don't know a thing about them :oThat's fine tho - I am sure I'll be buying one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Martin,Do not bother about Tankards etc. THe RBRR has the monopoly on these- I know this cos I am still sending the things out at pres! If you do -please don't- speak to Potters Bar Trophies-they know the Club and do all the Club trophy work- engraving and the like. DO NOT GO FOR TANKARDS!!!!!!!Go for the Polo Shirts- I'm sure no one would mind shelling out more dough for one- make sure they are a quality item- Greeks was clever with the 2003 design - it was a bit Hackett like- they seem to last well as Ellis and AJP still wear theirs(PHEW!)- get to the shops chaps and buy some clothing.We must be careful that we do not turn into a regalia type car club (Yes I know that Mel Evans our Club shop keeper does a nice line in CT regalia- however it is tasteful) let the TSSC have this market( When are they gonna do TSSC burbery caps)- reckon we should sell CT branded Webers!James- Are you thinking about Rally Plates if so Steve Waddinghams mate does those- I know you have approached him about the car stickers. I have two from the Aston Martin Works Car Club Kathy Peach Memorial Car Run event- very good they are too.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 I'll think this over.But I feel I would like a souvenir.maybe I'lll just buy the polo shirt plus there'll be lots ofmphotos and videos - which reminds me, i have some from the White Tornado crew re 10Cr2003 that I need to share somehow. I reckon James will be the man for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I am thinking rally plates - I still think they solve our problems...You can't keep stickers - but you can keep plates - and I don't see why we can't stick on plates with little sticky pads... no different to stickers then!Plates can also be taken on and off - so you can put them on when going to shows - and take them off and keep them on your mantle piece...

Deleted User Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 problem with pasties is you need a suovenir you can keep ,unless you put them in a nice 10cr wrapper and then you could frame that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
