Alright boiz

Plenty of updates re: Islays Bakers RC GMTO’s, but let’s begin with the mock up photos.

This is a mock up, I repeat this is just a mock up photos.

View attachment 1700307
Not the best I’m aware, I took it off the Radnor runs. I did tried using my own photos of my Carminas but it turned out rather ugly. I’ve moved to different rooms and there’s just no good light anywhere in my house. No fookin suns on these forsaken land!

I promise you it won’t look that burgundy.

Now for the updates.

Mrs. Searle spoke to Mr. Jones (MD) after that event and she managed to get a way through to us for a green light with just 8 participants! And the GMTO price would still be honour. All props to her ??

I’m thinking of maybe Ant. Copper for the hardwares configurations or perhaps Ant. Brass than metal.

Also we are going with double Ridgeways.

Those who are interested earlier could you please double confirm your status or if you want to drop:

@stephenaf2003
@Coolhand0302
@SteveL91

Other 4 guys are on Reddit, I’ll create a commitment post later there. With me we are 8 man strong (well, if they don’t drop).
@Soixante Alright, I'm in. Cool with antique brass or antique copper. Thanks for getting this all set up.

Saw there were a few open slots on the proposal sheet for a 2021 cigar shell Lindrick run. Is that for sure still active? It was a few tabs back from some older completed runs. Hope so since I've now added my name as spot 10. Thanks.

Probably need someone to revive it. The longer these MTOs go the higher likelihood people forget about them.

Is there a possibilty to have it made on an F last and be part of the same group, or they need 12 people on F last to make it happen?
