20th anniversary celebrations: vote for a title

[Derek Coghill]

<I thought we were looking for something not "in the park" now>

Yes, I know, but it was so close to T in the Park that I couldn't resist it. A bit on the obscure side though.

Quite like the "Vive 2CV Racing!" one.

Will we all have to learn the Marseillaise?

[Mary Lindsay]

Bien sur Derek.

[Martin Harrold]

Aubrey and I had a chat today.

Proposed by Derek, Mary and Frank and possibly others, something with Vive in it seems to have emerged as the best of the many ideas put forward.

So, we propose 'Vive La 2CV' as the event title, with the strap line 'A Celebration of 20 years of racing Classic 2CV's'

Everyone happy with that? One detail to be sorted by the Francophiles amongst you is, is it Le or La?

[Frank Barnard]

La

[Derek Coghill]

La

[Paul Robertson]

Sounds good to me martin.

[Mary Lindsay]

Me too.

[Matthew Hollis]

Yep, I think that's the best one

[David Bain]

Shouldn't that be Vive les 2CV?

[Derek Coghill]

No, because it's a thing rather than two horses (I did wonder about this, too...). And there's three of them, really.

[Martin Harrold]

La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La

Merry Christmas all.

La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La, La  La  le  La  La

If the Club chooses VIVE LA 2CV I still think it needs a subhead stressing racing, i.e summat like 20 Years Of Racing Thrills

[Mary Lindsay]

Our car, which we bought from Jon Davis, has a sticker in the windscreen which says "2CV Racing, Big Thrills, Small Bills!" and this really sums it up. If we are trying to persuade others to take up 2CV racing then this is a great slogan, especially in these times of financial hardship.

[Frank Barnard]

Yes, Mary, but I thought we were trying to celebrate twenty years?

[Mary Lindsay]

I just thought we might incorporate the sentiment in the new slogan.
