A HUGE ‘THANK YOU’

IMHO One of the things that sets HRT apart from other forums is the quantity of excellent photos that get posted or linked to.

I’d like to say thank you to all tenthers that take photos at race meetings, and then spend hours sorting them. I’m not going to mention names as I might miss someone!

Thank you all- You really make the forum come alive.

seems to be just as many lurkers and an ever decreasing quantity of posters in recent years, a bit like some of the race series. I've just written and deleted a post myself as I sound like a scratched record! still, I must drop in regularly to keep an eye on you all. HNY . . .

It's not hard work for them moderating here, we're all so good, are never controversial and of course never, ever stray off topic and have to be brought back

I jest of course. Thanks for the hard work herding us cats.

6366 posts in the 2019 "tea break" thread. A few years back it fell over at 2,500 or so. A huge thank you to MagnetOn for keeping our favourite forum up to date.

Just for anyone not familiar, in order we have Peter M in his Gp1 Capri, YT in Lairy Canary, Zef in his Cortina (closely examining the V8 Warwick GT), YT again in Gilbert Gilbern, Brian A in his oh-so-sweet Elite, and Colin McKay in his S Type.......

As you say, John, with photos we will always have memories.
