I am thinking of designing a plaque for all of us who would have liked to have attended but could not get there for one reason or another. I wonder how many I can sell to our eBay dealer.
No messages offering to buy from forum member as this not a serious proposal.

Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.

I thought I'd be clever and I stuck mine to the back of my National Trust pass to preserve it. Unfortunately, all I have ended up doing is ruining two stickers!

But yes, I agree it's sad to see the commemorative plaque being sold; sad for the seller and the buyer. I didn't register my chummy so I didn't get one. I was told there might be some spares at the end of the event but as I left on Thursday I wasn't able to find out.  I would love to have one given to me by the organisers as an attendee but obtaining one under any other circumstances is valueless, in my opinion.

We didn't attend the event, it's a long way from the Antipodes, but I'd be more than willing to pay Howard for a pair of them for our Chummy & Top Hat

Would someone be able to PM me his contact details please

Aye

Speaking of which, I wonder whether the New Zealand Club has any 'overs' of their rally plaque?

Lapel badge? didn't get one of those at Morton, was it supposed to be in the goody bag or handed out at signing in like the plaque....

It certainly wasn't in there when I looked through mine. Happy to buy one, pay postage etc. if there any of those still available.

Stuart,
I didn't think that we had one either, but on checking just now I found one in the corner creases of the canvas bag.
Cheers Alan
