Vintage Speedway World Champions Nostalgia Night

Steve,

I do not understand that last posting. I am sending you a private message

Fine, but does that mean you have to announce it to everyone?

[shazzybird 10]

Blimey you are worse than me for arguing with Steve!

 

Just a small pointer though Jim.. for someone who admits to knowing very little if nothing about British speedway you don't half get on your high horse over it! How much per ticket £25? and what exactly do you get for that apart from a meal?

[stevehone 3,425]

and what exactly do you get for that apart from a meal?

it's a buffet Shazzy

[shazzybird 10]

Thanks for the explanation Jim. Maybe they should pay for their own accomodation though!

[stevehone 3,425]

The problem then is that you might then not get all the riders you want

Make sure there is subject heading or it won't post Jim

Shazzybird, like I told you I know very little about British speedway. I do not support a team and I do not go to any tracks and I don't buy the speedway star.

 

As you have pointed out the above, one thing puzzles me why go to all the expense of this event when you have hardly any interest in speedway? Why not leave it to the powers that be to organise and pay for it? :? :?

[stevehone 3,425]

it seems the 'powers that be' weren't even interested in a 75th anniversary meeting, let alone an evening of nostalgia.

 

if things were left to 'the powers that be' there would probably be no speedway full stop

powers to be........?

[shazzybird 10]

Ok Ok I get the message lol

[kiwi 49]

More bad news. Received email from Ivan Mauger that he cannot attend...Dooh

 

 

 

 

 

He probably heard you were paying for the Russians accomodation, They were getting more than him.

 

Try inviting Bjorn Knutsson, he's more famous than Knutson anyway.

Why not just wait till the VSRA dinner and grab a couple of unsuspecting Riders/ex Riders and collar them whilst "Tipsy" about you event and tell them in the morning "but you agreed last night! The fans will be really disappointed if you don't turn up now. I've already emailed the speedway forum" :roll:

[shazzybird 10]

Nice too meet you Sunday morning Jim, Hope your night was a success. Now it's over you can relax!!!!!

 

ps the painting you showed us was excellent!

[Custom House Kid 45]

I think a lot of people missed a very special occasion that is never likely to happen again. (Not by me at least.)  ;-)  

Thanks again, Cheers

Jim

 

Never say never again!

 

Good luck Jim
