Wendy 0 Posted March 12, 2012 The Sprinter arrived today, brilliant timing as I am home off sick. What a fabulour read - even if I say so myself. I read it twice. Thanks to the Jim and Chris who thought of the idea to do this. A fantastic job of it they made too. I even enjoyed Chris's editing ( re the blond bits - in brackets and other comments ! !) Hopefully everyone else will enjoy this Sprinter as much and be encouraged to join in trips either organised by others or organise some themselves. And - thanks to everyone who came on the trip and joined in part through - you are the ones who made it. And Martin for those who don't know is Easypops (and his wife - Lyndsay) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to work in newspapers and could never believe how many times this sort of thing happened. It's just a typo not picked up in editing - and shows everyone is human !!!!!

Jim 2 Posted March 12, 2012 Bugger! Really annoyed about the 2011 date mistake. After a few weeks of staring at the magazine during design you tend to miss even blindly obvious errors! Thanks for the good feedback folks and hope the 'Mc' and the tartan doesn't offend Scottish members. I sought opinion from a number of Scottish friends prior to print and was assured it came across in the way intended! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tempest 0 Posted March 12, 2012 Nice one, received mine today, too. Well done to the authors, and editor(s)! Bit all our fault (those that had seen the preview copy that is) for not spotting the 2011. I hadn´t spotted that either. Oh well, far tooe xcited seeing it finished and going out to members :) Happy reading! Tempest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted March 13, 2012 Answers to Q's from folks... Fay - afraid it looks like you've lapsed. G-Lad - if you sign up, you would get a members pack with the most recent issue of the mag in it :) easypops - can you PM me your full name so I can check the members spreadsheet?

scarlet_vr6 0 Posted March 13, 2012 Thanks, thought that might be the case but was hoping that my memory is worse than I think it is! I'd better sign up then - don't want a gap in my Sprinter collection ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dollyman 10 Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Got mine! Excellent mag and tax disc holder is cool, too Have spent quite a bit of time visiting Scotland over the years (and my Dad's now lived in Inverness for over 20 years) so much of the tour had a lot of resonance with me. Impressed with your weather though :). Yeah, I noticed the 2011 too but having spent a couple of years producing a monthly car mag for a club, I know that no matter how many times you go through and check everything, some typo will always sneak through!!
