I think you've jumped to the wrong conclusion there Baub, 2 plus 2 does not equal 5. (Actually, as this is a Morgan magazine should I have said 4+4?). Maybe the cycling article isn't the reason for my purchase...

'Lanterne Rouge' here having just received my copy of MOG and read Baub's amusing write up

Mrs R thought it was really fitting, I'm not sure as to whether to be embarrassed or flattered by the amount of content I got.

Thanks Baub

71 Calendars ordered so far, but only 51 individuals have done so, many buying more than one copy. Come on you laggards, time is running out, probably only another week or so to go before the book closes, and 29 still to go.

Remember this is certain to become a collectors item, and increase in value over the years, hurry, do not be one of the unlucky ones. By purchasing a copy you are supporting a very worthwhile cause, and donating to charity.
Lets make Mike proud, he certainly deserves our support.

PS; I am not on a commission and will not even get a free copy. Such dedication.

Did not really know Mike at all! Believe I only met him once at Silverstone but have got to know him and how well-liked and respected he was through these pages. Have just ordered a copy of the calendar.

Thanks Tim, if you did meet him just once, you had a friend, Magic Mike truly sums him up.

Only 27 more to go now.

Anywhere we might get a few orders from Iain, the more publicity we get the better chance of hitting target, so yes please.

PS; Apologies to young Mr Rowley. obviously named after a World Champion.

Bauble Bob.

Yes he was Bob.My Dad when I rang to tell him about the birth was more def than me at the time. He thought I said "Dirk" after Dirk Bogart" instead of Stewart after Jackie Stewart. We started getting cards from the family congratulating me and Mrs Delta.It took another long phone call to put him right. Happy days.

We will only print the number sold, so we can wait a few more days before closing the book, and see what transpires.
