Dover Forum Staff Rumbled
- 6 June 2010 16:3055080Ah yes, Today was a spying mission.
Boland Towers was empty, No sign of life.
And then amongst the throng I spotted the back of a super brain.
The Boss needs a hair cut.
Delving into every nook and cranny the Boss flashed away unaware I was even present.
After hunting the team down I caught them walking away from a vehicle they had left on the sea front. Howard with a box of Champers under his arm.
Yes gochtya, The Dover Forum Staff car caught on camera for the first time.
grass grows by the inches but dies by the feet. - 6 June 2010 16:5855083 Love it Ian!

Well done Ian yer a good lad!email: dover7@msn.com - 6 June 2010 18:2055100seems that ian has sussed us out paul.
i blame it on the influence and affluence of barrington and colette and their jet set lifestyle.
dragged the rest of us into it. - 6 June 2010 18:2055101Watching you watching PaulB eh Ian?
Tell them that I came, and no one answered. - 6 June 2010 18:3055105Vic brought his other car down today.
Tell them that I came, and no one answered. - 6 June 2010 18:3455107As did Roger.
Tell them that I came, and no one answered. - 6 June 2010 18:3455108Ah no! thats not me Colin, I was the one in the cap and beard and long(ish hair).. like a reject from the motorcycle club, even complete with old leather jacket...as seen top of page.email: dover7@msn.com
- 6 June 2010 18:3955110That is Terry from the Mercury not Paul from the Towers,I managed to get down there and back without seeing too many of you,well Ian Vic,David H but took the back roads with my DogIf you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!
- 6 June 2010 18:4055112Oh no those camera's are everywhere sorry there Ian everyone was out to lunch sadly not in that staff car (OH HOW I WISH)
- 6 June 2010 18:4355114Paul don't you have a butler or a man that does when you are out,I thought a man of your means would have one as Howard has one.If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!
- 6 June 2010 18:4355115Sorry Paul, I know you must have been to the left of me, but I was referring to Ian there in the background.Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
- 6 June 2010 18:4855117Gosh Colin thought for a minute I was out with the wrong guy but must say was nice to see so many people there and to bump into a few formites as well
- 6 June 2010 18:5555119Good one Howard, nearly missed that... This affluence is turning into effluence....lol!! Have now got an overall shot of the seafront cars on the frontpage, for anyone who hasnt been down to the seafront take a look at frontpage to see the sheer volume of the display.
JHG I have a little french maid who can do wonders with her feather duster..email: dover7@msn.com - 6 June 2010 19:1155120Popped down with the missus this afternoon and gave the camera a good workout. A terrific display no doubt and many thanks must go to the organisers and the Rolls Royce Owners Club for doing us proud. As for espying Forumites, I only caught a glimpse of our Roger and Jean from afar but he was very engrossed with upholstery it seemed.
Popped into Millers for a bite and a refreshing ale (Spitfire of course) and promptly missed the real thing; doh! - 6 June 2010 20:0655128I had an interesting lunch with the sec and treasurer from the SE RR club and asked them to put in their agenda a regular trip to Dover. After 5 mins of the big sell the Sec said that they were more than happy to come here any time as the Club loved the area. He couldnt diary anything till 2012 so i replied that I was thinking long term and offered a day trip if they stayed over and also a James Bond weekend that is long in the planning. I told them that Dover Tourism was looking to be more proactive and wanted car clubs to see us as a venue. I will be keeping in contact with them until we can make good on that promise. I was anyway about to do the same sell to the jaguar.enthusiasts club of which I am a member!
Also spent tie with the Deputy Mayor of Monmouth who came in the Mayors place. They have an interesting method of selecting mayors by taking it in turn regardless of politics!!! - 8 June 2010 07:4055364Another set of great photos - excellant week-end; sorry I missed you Sid.
Must have been a Rolls' upholstery I was looking at - such amazing quality, no expense spared - on any of them.
When Ian saw the Dover Forum Staff car, he said he wanted to be Howard's assistant !
Good bit of networking there David - well done.
I thought your cap was one of those with the false hair on it Paulb - good colour match it seemed.
Roger
