Same problem as ol' Bartus I'm afraid - I exist in the world of the yankee dollar - but here's what I'm going to do. I'll nip to the bank and swap over the nearly 40 f**k*ng bucks it's going to take to get hold of 20 sovs and I'll mail it to you - if you would be kind enough to use the outstanding 11 quid to mail the shirt back to me. Will that work?
I'll need XXL if available, as I'm fairly hefty.
Please let me know.

I'll get the necessary done. I can do Sterling or Euro, which do you prefer? (I thought the punch-up with Bartus was because you couldn't do Euro's - I must have misunderstood).
I'm not scheduled to be in Europe before June.
Please ensure that the Mini memorabilia does not include dog turds, piss of any description, or razor blades sewn into the neckline.
Regards
Matt

Matt, do you want the t-shirt before June?? Otherwise I'll stand the £9 for you and you can just collect it on the weekend of the race and settle up then. (The same offer still goes for Braketest)
You may even be lucky and the dollar may recover slightly against the old strerling in the meantime.

Or if Matt was REALLY desparate, and the shirts were ready by March, someone might take it to Sebring...?

Matthew - what the farg are you buying one of these shirts for? It'll have enormous chlorine burns in it by March and will be totally unusable....
Can someone give him some advice about pool care?

Is the trip to Sebring included in the £2.54?  |

I am very touched by the thoughtfulness of those who have offered to help me with my CA T-shirt dilema - particularly JPC - your offer to stump-up for my shirt and collect on the day, is extremely generous and I very much appreciate it. So much so, that I'll do you a swap. I will be attending the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Daytona 500 and the 12 Hours of Sebring and possibly the Indy 500 prior to Le Mans. Would you rather have the 9 quid, or a shirt of your choice from one of these classics - or a 6-pack of Grimbergen?
If you decide on the shirt, let me know your girth and I'll get you sorted.
Granted, US racing shirts tend to be somewhat more garish than the restrained tones of Big H's design - but the artwork and quality are the bollocks. If you decide on the Grimbergen, I cannot be held responsible for any subsequent unpleasent consequences.
Please let me know JPC
Matt
p.s. Additionally, this strategy will ensure that I do not conduct any pool maintenance while wearing my CA colours (I burned a f**k*ng great hole in a $70.00 Rolex polo shirt, due to my sloppy handling of chlorine - thanks for telling the world, Dave)

Robbo: Thanks for sorting Matt's t-shirt. Additional cheque on it's way.
Matt: The idea of a US based shirt sounds great, and thanks for the generous offer. As I have no idea on designs I'll leave myself in your hands. Size is XL. Thank You!! Does Dave want one as well??

Dave's missus is currently going about the business of ejecting their first born, so I suspect his mind will be on things other than CA shirts right now. But, sod it! If you don't mind 'giving me a push' until Le Mans, lets get him one too. He's not quite as humungous as me so XL should just about go over his man-tits.
I'll get you a Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona shirt in XL and Dave will secure one from Mobil 12 Hours of Sebring - you'll be the envy of La Sarthe.
Alternatively, we could do combo of shirt/baseball cap - whichever you prefer.
Thanks again JPC - you're a star player.

Has anyone elses' Mrs been in labor for 4 f**k*ng days? Took 30 seconds to get this started 9-10 months ago! This is driving me insane.
Cheers on the shirt jpchenet. Sebring shirt it is - assuming that she's had the kid by then! Appreciate you taking care of this. I look forward to my permanent Guinness stain down the front.....

Hang on in there Dave, but whatever you do, don't suggest she's making a bit of a meal of it.
Go kiddo, go!

I'm off to Dublin for the day on Friday so could obtain some of the real stuff and pre-arrange the stain for you if you like Dave??  |
