Just for the hell of it, here is a couple of pictures I took early last Saturday morning as the mist was lifting at a local salt marsh;

Great pictures, would make a splendid cover shot for the club mag. Lovin those rim embellishers, could do with a set for my steels. Will have to keep my eyes peeled

:lol:

Every picture I have submitted to the club magazine has never made it to the front cover! That's in nearly 20 years of club membership!! Best I managed was a back cover a couple of issues back....you can tell I'm not bitter or owt can't you! :rasp:

I just need to admit my car is always going to be the bridesmaid never the bride when it comes to the club mag I reckon :( .

Yes, the "beauty rings" do add something - plus they also mean I don't have to paint the wheels too often :wink:

Ha, thats one of the reasons I want some! :wink: Although I have just invested in a diy powder coater which will hopefully paired up with my dads sandblaster should keep those rust spiders at bay.

Send Steve, a box of chocs.. I'm sure he'd promote you to the front. Last issues choice was a bit of a chuckle :lol:

Alan, I could have a word in Steve's ear at the next West Yorkshire meeting. He will need a high resolution photo (at least 10 megapixels I would reckon) and it has to be unmodified so no Photshopped images.

Congrats for getting Happy in the mag. Neil Campbell has a weakness for Canley iron being Coventry born so that helps us no end.

Lol! no, honestly Dave please don't say anything to Steve, honestly I am not vain, if a picture is chosen on it's merit then that's fine by me, I really aren't bothered at all, it's just been an observation of mine :)

And yes Neil is totally biased in our favour :wink: .
