Hi there,
I am at the opposite end of the country to you, Cornwall to be precise. Over the last three or four years I have tried to track Standards in this county with only a modicum of success, yet the next county up the line, Devon, is sprouting Standards, left,right and centre. Don't give up, try to get some coverage of the marque in the local press of events you go to, assuming your vehicles are on the road. If they are under restoration, what about getting the media interested in covering your work on the cars. The difficult thing I find is when a member of the public comes up to you and says "What make is it?" and "Standard" is the reply. The next question is "Who made them?" so we have a lot of work to educate Joe Public.
Any other suggestions from the Forum.
Regards,
Brian

Hi Danny, Ask the membership secretary for a contact list for Scotland members. There are several in Edinburgh area, and I have sent several items to members all over Scotland. Is there a large enough show where people would be prepared to travel to to make a Club stand.This situation is always the same when you are on the "edge" of the main population ares, just like I am in East Anglia. Put an item in the Review as only a small proportion of members actually use the forum.
GOOD LUCK . Ian.
