Thanks chaps, just the OSF name was being dragged through shit due to no fault of our own. Would be nice to have a big turn out this year, 

Obvious see this as a threat then !! .......pull back both barrels

Not sure what the fuss is about but something will clash somewhere with something else? We did it last year, were doing it again this year, and hopefully for more to come! Deal with it!

agree with Colin, and as you rightly say, one is main bulk plastic bumper brigade, whilst OSF is heavy metal

you cant please all of the people all of the time, just some of the people some of the time

 

Right on Ray........so we'll see you there this year? 

On this subject, I've been getting a bit of stick on my phone, through my FB profile and also through the OSF FB page. Bring it on I say. I don't need anyone's permission to run an internal event aimed solely at members of this club.

I agree with Col and Ray, basically fook em. There are so many events now during the Summer months, bound to clash with someone. Can't not do it, I think the Moor Tour could become a permanent fixture as the site it is held on really is cool. Really hope to be there, looking at booking a room.....Mrs will not camp, at all. Yet me, I will camp and mince all day long if needed....:mrgreen:

There are lodgings available on site that weekend but I would book them ASAP as I don't think there are many. Contact the venue direct and ask to speak to Colin stating that you're from OSF.

!!!!!Breaking News!!!!!

I can now publicly announce we have been invited to take part in the 1960’s Gala at the South Devon Railway on the Sunday. 

We have been asked to form a diorama type display, showing off the best of the 60’s. As we all know, 1968 saw the Birth of the Mk1 Escort and it would be great to make a 50th display for this. Also Alan Mann racing, rally wins, Anglias and Corsairs. 

The event will take place on the Grounds out side Buckfastleigh Station. There will also be live bands, Beer tent, kids attractions and of course the railway it’s self. As a thank you for taking part, included in the cost you will be given free train travel on or after 3pm.

As the Gala is on all weekend we have also been invited down to watch the live bands and partake in liquid refreshments Friday and Saturday evenings.

As with Goodwood Revival, fancy dress is highly encouraged and prizes will be handed out to those who wish to take part. 

For those of us with 70’s model cars ie Mk2 escorts you are still welcome to take part in the day, perhaps making a looking into the future Stand. 

Us attending the Gala on Sunday has no extra cost to ticket prices and provides another family day out for those who wish to take part. 

More details to come from the railway but here is a link http://southdevonrailway.co.uk/ticket-to-ride

My brother is a member of old skool Ford and wants to do the tour but don't want to camp what does he need to do / pay ? 

We are hoping to sell enough camping passes to cover 90% of the costs. Once achieved day passes will be released. We caught a cold last year by selling more day passes than camping passes and thus making a loss. A price will be announced once our target has been achieved. 

Also to add we are not here to make a profit out of participants. It was hoped last year we could make a donation to a charity. It is also hoped we can achieve that this year.
