MGCC/Autosport
Below is a copy of a letter I have just sent to Autosport, what odds will anyone offer me on it’s publication?
Sir. Having spent the evening at the Unipart Marshals’ Trophy presentation I was not amused to be woken at a (relatively) early hour the next morning by our postie ringing the doorbell with one hand and clutching a parcel in the other. However this soon changed when the contents of the parcel were revealed to be a very fine, and extremely practical rucksack sent by the MG Car Club as a seasonal appreciation for my marshaling activities for the club this year. Accompanying this was a very kind letter from John Watson the chief marshal. Given the continuing decline in numbers of marshals at many events, perhaps some of the “major” race organisers should take a lesson in morale boosting from this “smaller” club. Many thanks MGCC I’ll be there next season. |

My guess is that it won't get published (I hope to be proved wrong) at the risk of causing embarrassment to the MGCC from the content of your last paragraph.

John
I think you have as much chance of publication in Autosport as Minardi have of winning the 2004 world championship unforunatley (No offence Minardi), 1) Bob Hope 2) No hope Why not try there sister publication Motoring news or whatever its called these days. |
