On the positive side; you would have a souvenir of the evening, and I can't wait to see 300 people gathered together all wearing the same shirt Wink

Be careful, you'll be accused of starting a fashion trend .....  Grin Shocked

I am thinking about it more and more and T-shirts do sound best to me! It will look amazing, they will not be for sale, but are a gift for contributing to the costs of the party and raise money for charity. If we play our cards right, we could have some newspaper coverage as well, cause in a sense we are organizing a big charity party, with all the proceeds (minus costs) will go to charity.

We could even call it the drinking for holland charity party. Only people contributing (wearing a tshirt) are welcome. Even if it does rain, you could wear it over your raingear, it will get wet, but who cares. The most important thing is that you are recognisable as a group and freeloaders will think twice about crashing the party. Also to keep a check on who is coming, we can ask people to pick up their shirt personally, sending out gives people time to copy it and that is something we have to prevent.

I know I am a bit late coming in on this thread, I have to say I am willing to go with the final agreement as there have been some good ideas shared.  I have read all the options and you are all looking for the same goal.
I tried to police the bar to an extent of failure this year as there were a lot trying it on free loading.
By the way did I say thanks for the taxi home after the friday party.

Excellent team work has evolved here and as part of a big LM family that we all are we want what is best for all and this includes keeping it simple but effective and fun.
Good luck Paddy Marius and all you at DFH, I will really miss the real consultation banter meeting at the CA/DFH bash.

I agree, the t-shirt thingie will be amazing, can you imagine the view of it? everybody wearing the shirts around the circuit afterwards, it would be so cool, I am getting thirsty already Cheesy

Is Andy... the Andy that was on the same ferry as Myself and Perdu?Huh??

Oh, and due to the obscene costs of flights to Australia just before Crimbo, Looks like Lady PP and I will be attending the DFH bash. £1800 is just rude for the same flight that costs about £600 ish in March. Better to be drunk in Holland than skint in oz and wishing one had gone to holland. Hurrah

Fagey,

Glad you're back in the world of the living dead. Sorry I missed the opportunity in Southampton.

Now, where in France are you looking to buy?

Sorry for stumbling back on topic Grin

I'd prefer hats instead of t-shirts as a proof-of-payment for the DFH Friday party. My reasons:

- I've already just too many LM t-shirts and it's getting more each year. Besides our own annual LeMansZone t-shirt I also buy the annual CA shirt, then another one for the party...really?

- 100+ people all wearing the same hat will also make a pretty impressive sight - and also easy enough to sort out for the people who serve beer

- costumes like the legendary Team Zarse dresses will be difficult if everyone has to wear a t-shirt, I would miss that!

Cheers and a nice start of the week to everybody

Werner
