Hi folks,

Me , Shep and some mates will be having a bit of a bash to remember our mate Grib at Cadwell on Sat 1st.

We'll be setting up a couple of party tents and will be having a BBQ and a beer or ten.

There will also be some music for a bit of a boogie.

It's nothing too ostentacious, but I think we'd be doing Grib a disservice if we didn't have a burger, beer and a chin wag at one of her fave circuits.

Can anyone that would definitley like to come add their name below so we can get an idea of the amount of food to buy.

Copy and paste, you know the drill.

Cheers,

Tim :)

Hey Tim, I and the good folks of the KMR team will be at Pembrey that weekend so wont be able to make it. We'll raise a glass for Grib and be sure that she'll be smiling on all of us wherever we are racing.

Well done guys, if this is Sat 1st August at Cadwell for DD then we'll get in the car and come over, a celebration of Lucie's life is def in order.

Yep, It's all kickin off on Sat eve on the 1st. We'll probably be set up just outside the main paddock so as not to take up a load of room in the main paddock.

Everything is free, just bring yourself, any memories of Grib, a smile and some booze if you don't like lager!

I suppose if you don't ike burgers or sausages..or you're a veggie, you can bring some grub too!

Cheers :)

Plan at the minute is to be parked up near scrute bay if poss (unlikely cos it gets taken quickly and we have a big tent.

Second choice will be just outside the main paddock fence on the grass at the right hand side as you drive in towardss the paddock.

Will try to kick off about 7ish.

See you all there! :)

Amazingly, we are pitched up on hard standing near the scrute bay.

Big white party tent that'll have a Lincolnshire flag hanging from the front.

7pm start, those that can come, see ya there. Those that can't raise your glasses.

Cheers folks,

Tim :)

Hi guys
We both got some sort of bug after the Brno trip last weekend, hopefully just a bad cold and my hands and feet are not going to turn into trotters! Anyway it means we probably won't make this which is very dissapointing. I'll raise a glass of cough medicine - or similar ;-) of course for Lucie.
Have a great one.

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to those that helped with the organisation of this event (Shep, his family and amazingly hilarious supporter crew and anyone I've missed cos I'm knackered).

Also, thanks to those who came and showed their support and love, it made an amazing weekend of racing absolutely priceless.

Probably one of my fave weekends of all time.

Thanks again folks,

Tim :)

I'm sorry I wasn't able to attend. Very sorry.

I hope everyone there remembered Lucie in the way she'd want to be remembered.
