Talk Morgan Forums Community The Malvern Arms Round Britain's Coast Road: Please Make a Donation

When we did a tour of Europe in 2010, I set up a twitter account and posted updates by text message from a basic phone. Friends and family followed the postings and the 140 character limit wasn't a problem (normally!).

Good luck with the Adventure, whatever the means I would be very interested in a live update as the tour progresses.

Done

A great cause Frank.

Sorry, you will need to explain 'a Sticky' to this 'uninitiated'

"Sticky" means the thread stays (or sticks) to the top of the thread list and is not superseded and pushed down by newer threads. Because of the nature of the thread, this way it doesn't get lost down the list.

HTH

Thanks Andy , Learning something new, every day

Thanks to the Very Kind and Generous Donations from Talk Morgan Members, we have already passed £1000 (including Gift Aid).

That is just fantastic. Thanks to everyone for this support.

Great News Everyone .

Donations have now passed the total raised last year at our Waddesdon Event.

Thanks to any contributor here who I have not yet managed a personal thank you (Due to knot knowing the TM name of the donator)

Does anyone know what I would need to do (if anything, insurance wise or other) if I was to offer pre trip rides in the car locally for a donation (not to you guys, obviously) .

A friend also suggested offering a part day ride along the trip route where a Train Service runs along the coast, to allow the passenger to get back. I already have one R100 owner who wants to travel in car from Liverpool back home (on route)

Your starting date 10th April is my birthday......

There are a few other Bridge Crossings and a couple of Ferries (King Harry, Dartmouth & Tamar)
I still need to check if there are other Dealers on the Coast Route.
I still need to plan where to make Lunch & Rest stop on the way.
I hope there are no Fords lurking on the Single Track Roads.
It all sounds easy when you say it quickly. I just hope it goes reasonably well

Frank , what a great idea!!

Is this pre-planned route via tour operator or your own planning

Good luck !
