The Liberty Syndicates Motor Racing Legends Dinner
Friday 10th February 2006
Mountbatton Room
The Royal Automobile Club, Pall Mall
11 very enthusiastic Jaguar Drivers' Club supporters of the Le Mans 24 Hours Race, 5 from Area 18, were scheduled to come to this dinner. Sadly at the eleventh hour John and Margaret Knowles had to withdraw due to ill health.
Motoring Adventures organise the event on on behalf of the JDC and do a superb job, what a pity it isn't better supported by the membership.
JDC attendee's included :- John and Elaine Birchall, John Brennand, Barrie Collins, Clive Haslock and wife, Nic and Bridget Drukker, and Sir Glenn Hickman,
Guest Speaker: David Richards CBE
Chairman and Chief Executive of the ProDrive Group

The Committee Room
A fine meal of lamb washed down by equally fine wine
and a drop of port and brandy was enjoyed by all.
Where is Clive, where has he gone, will he be back?
He always seems able to slip away un-noticed!
This is Clive with Bridget.
I wonder what he had been up to! Whatever it was, it put a big smile on his face!
Clives not here again, but then neither is Barry,
.......................
and Elaine is taking the picture!
A haughty Elaine is back! Must be Sir Glenn taking the shot!
David and Karen Richards, John and Elaine and John
pose for Clive the useless photographer!

Karen took this picture because she thought Clive was hopeless!!

For one moment I thought it was little Norman Dewis!
But no, it's none other than Sir Stirling!
Stirling tells John he's never before spoken on a mobile phone
to someone he dosen't know in a pub in Wigan!
Digby looks on confused.

The next lady asked me if she could come to Area 18's Lakes Weekend
'Lady Moss, Susie' I said
'Play your cards right and I'll think about it, give me your phone number!'
a pretty little thing, don't you think?
