It's that time of year when I start badgering people for photos for the Club Calendar.

I've already had some submissions via email, and I've been busy with the camera at 
this years Club Event and the Retro Show, but I'm always after nice pics.

So, landscape orientation please, as hi-res as possible, and preferably pics without 
lots of people in, just the car(s) and backdrop.

Ideally I need photos in by the end of September, so please email me with what you
have asap.  I need to get it designed and to the printers by mid October, so that they
are printed and ready for the NEC in November.

They are always a limited run of 50, first come first served.

email:  clairew@fab1.net (clairew 'at' fab 'one' dot net)

Thanks in advance!
I've had some brilliant photos submitted already, I think David Abraham will
be sending some over from the recent Irish meet up too, and I took plenty
at the Club Event this weekend.

I've spoken to the printer, there will unfortunately be a 5% price rise this year
which is on top of the ever increasing Royal Mail postage prices, but we will
try and keep costs as low as possible.
Ive sent you a few
OMG, I've had some very good submissions this year, its going to be very hard
to pick a final 13! (12 months plus the cover).

Thank you so much to everyone who's contributed, the standard of photos this
year is off the scale.

I also think that Ryan Harvey and David Abraham go into competition each year
to see who can outdo each other with submissions!!    Big Grin

Anyway, I'd best crack on sorting the photos out and get them over to the printer....
Phew, the final 13 have been chosen, sorted, and sent to the printer - my
eldest had to help in the end with choosing between the final few pictures.

Hopefully, I'll have the calendars with me by the end of the month/early
October.

Now, usually I get 50 done, and they all sell out by Xmas.  If the demand 
is there, I'll up it to 60, but I'm wary of ordering too many for obvious 
reasons.

Anyway, I'll update in due course with prices and when they will be available.

Thanks again to everyone who sent pictures in, the standard this year has been
incredible.
CALENDARS ARE NOW IN STOCK!!

We only have 60, they are first come, first served, and once they are
sold out that's it.

Now, thanks to Royal Mail price hikes, postage has gone up considerably 
since last year - that's out of my control sadly, so if they look more 
expensive this year, then this is the reason why.

If you want to collect yours from the Club Stand at the NEC next month, 
then that's no problem, let me know how many you want and they will
be put aside for you in a named envelope.

If you are collecting in person, the price is £ 6.75 each.

The following prices include Postage Costs, Paypal Fees, etc and are based on one 
item, if you want more then one, I will need to calculate the price with increased 
postage.

UK:  £9.95
Europe:   £12.50
World Zone 1 (South America, Japan, Africa, Asia, etc) £13.95
World Zone 2 (Australia & New Zealand)  £14.99
World Zone 3 (USA) £13.99

Paypal is secretary@deloreans.co.uk - this sends a notification to Chris Williams, not
me, so there may be a day or so's delay in shipping them out as I will wait to receive
the email notification from Chris before I can post them out.

Please note, on the picture below, the back cover showing thumbnails is a cropped 
representation of each picture, the picture on the calendar page itself is the full one.

My thanks again to David Mayes at Trojan Press for doing these, including finding the 
"Rustproof" font for the cover page, he's done a cracking job once again.
Excellent work Claire.

I'll collect mine as usual at the NEC if that's ok.

Curious now. Where was the title image taken?

no probs, I'll put one aside for you.

The cover pic was taken at Tatton Park a few years ago.

I thought it looked nice and would suit a cover shot.
A quarter of the stock has now gone!

I had a look at last years postage figures, and I was shocked to see
that postage has gone up by 75p from last year per calendar (UK).

Absolutely ridiculous IMO.
count me in for one too Claire please, I'll probably pick it up from the NEC again

will do, I'll pop one aside for you.
Just an update:

I have given a batch of calendars to Rich Hanlon for the NEC next week,
so as I've just had a few orders go out, I've only got 3 left here with me.

Once they are gone, then anyone wanting one will have to wait until after the
NEC weekend so that I can put some aside at the show to bring home with me.

Remember, these are limited stock, and when they are gone, that's it, there won't
be any more!

I'm also getting sent some fab pics already for the 2025 calendar!

#gettinginearly
could I have one please Claire? I'll see Richard at the NEC on the Friday.
Hi Chris,
there's one in an envelope ready for you to collect from the NEC next week.
Best to you & Christine x
Hi Chris, yep I've got all the pre-ordered ones in the box I collected from Claire, she has put them all in envelopes - very organised as always! I also have majority of the non-pre-ordered stock to bring with me. (I had to get them last week, as I'm busy most nights between now and next Thurs!)

See you soon, Rich
