It's a splendid idea Matt, and just the sort of venture that deserves to be sponsored. Please check your e-mail, you will find that I have sent you details of all the credit and charge cards I own. I'll also scan in a copy of my signature along with the capillary patterns on my retina and send them too. All I ask is that you carry out your chores in the CA sponsored pink panties. Not much to ask after all, in fact, I'm wearing mine right now.

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Just to add a pint on Money
225 T Shirts were sold, and had i charged £10 each , CA kitty would have £225 pounds for sponsoring
If i was able to Bulk buy the mugs i would get them for just under £4 , and charge £5 , making £1 per mug.
I would reckon that with a little thought into it, the goods that have been sold could raise £400, which is a good start to any sponsorship fund, Moggie or PUG .
So what other products have you got planned Robbo?? I'm looking into embroidered polo shirts. caps and sweatshirts through a contact of mine. I'm also looking at "Stubby Holders" or Can Coolers. Only problem is, to get them below £5 each I need to get at least 200 of them. Could always add a pound per item for sponsorship?  I actually studying embroidered folding beds for all campsites  |

I appreciate the gesture H. Two things immediately spring to mind. Firstly, I think it somewhat unfair that you alone should pony-up for my selfish indulgence. I'd rather hoped that the more self-sacrificing members of the forum (you know, the ones that keep banging on about how great it would be to muck-in and pay for someone else's entertainment) would also chuck in, a la Morgan/Racing for Holland/poverty-stricken, multi-helicopter owning Msr Pescarolo. Secondly, I really would prefer cash, if it's not too much trouble, old bean. As a footnote, I would be happy to exchange my tighty-whiteys for pink knickers, on the assumption that all the money will be with me by the weekend (I've got a special rate on a suite at the Bellagio). |

Now Matt, I was more than happy to entertain your idea, until I realised you were going to squander so much of it on the Bellagio (that water display may be OK the first time you see it but the same show every half hour??) Come On! For goodness sake!! Stay at Circus Circus for $49.95 a night and then it gives far more money for wasting at Hooters.
And what's with all the Asians standing in the middle of The Strip passing out mailers for "Girls Girls Girls" I thought prostitution was illegal in Vegas but it's pretty much in your face isn't it. We had to keep on swerving along the pavement to avoid too many awkward questions form the kids.

I didn't seem to have that problem last time I was making my way down the Vegas Strip...... ....mind you, I was driving an RV at the time! Matt, I've got a pile of Egyptian pounds clogging up a drawer somewhere, plus some old Mexican Pesos from 1985 before they knocked 3 noughts off. Oh! and MILLIONS of Yen. I'll leave them in a brown envelope behind the washroom door next time I'm in Miami. |

Gilles,
While I applaud your well meaning thoughts regarding Henri and his equipe, I'm afraid I have to agree with Matt on this one. Handing over your hard earned income so that someone else can go racing just isn't very sensible. As much as I love racing I will also be the first to admit that the cold, hard reality of the sport is that it is full of some of the biggest slime-balls walking this planet, just waiting to empty the wallets of well meaning individuals. Leave the donations to w**k*rs like David Letterman (a late night TV host here in the US) who have more money than common sense. Letterman spends millions every year on Rahal Racing for the privilage of being able to stand around in the pits and say "I'm with the team".

JP ,
I hadnt even thought of anything else.
If enough people want something , Mr davies is happy to flaunt the good name of his web site on certain products i am sure my printers will come up trums.
Hadnt thought much more, although the quality of the stuff so is good.
Matt - I'll sponsor you, no honest i will. Sweet Fanny adams i will.

I'll leave them in a brown envelope behind the washroom door next time I'm in Miami. Steve, your generousity knows no bounds - and I am deeply moved. I'm not so bothered about the raghead and wetback currencies - the Yen, I will gratefully part from you. Simply furnish me with you bank account details, passwords etc and I'll take care of everything else. Robbo, you're just a tease - I got all dewy-eyed when I read that you'd sponsor me - only to dash my hopes, a sentence later. It seems that my Vegas trip will have to be cancelled. It just goes to show that the only people worthy of sponsorship are those who actually have the funds, but would just rather suckers like us footed the bill. Go figure that one out. Gibb, I'm sorry to learn that things are grim on the employment front. What is your area of expertise? My parent company in UK is always on the hunt for talented people. Feel free to PM me or email me at mharper6@cfl.rr.com Either way, I hope you get sorted soon. Redundancy is a bitch, but often opens more doors than it closes - I speak from experience. |
