Soulies Need Help
Hi All We are a team of 3 Northern Soulies in our 50ts who have been life long friends, Thats me Steve Bratherton (Brav), Andrew Norburn & Austen Jones (Aussie). We are embarking on a Car Banger Rally to Scandinavia and back, some 4000 miles in a car that cost less than £100 pounds with 100 other teams who have the same £100 restrictive budget. It all sounds a bit crazy, well it is and that's the whole point ! will we make it ! who knows. Our car is a 1971 Triumph 2000 rescued from a scrap yard and has already competed in one event to Rome and back in 2006 raising £6000 for Cancer Research. I say Rome and back but it did'nt make it all the way back as the rear Subframe broke in half due to corrosion. It has now been Repaired and is ready to rumble again.. Some of you out there may have seen the car parked at venues up and down the country and believe me, it does attract attention. Anyway to get to the point we are looking for Businesses to sponsor us, in return your company Logo will be put on our car which is fantastic advertising for your company. I would like to point out that the cost of the car, petrol, hotels, ferries and anything else you can think of, comes out of our own pockets, so that all the money you donate goes to Cancer Research. If you have a company and are interested please e-mail me at steve_bratherton@hotmail.com or you can PM me. I also have a website with more info at www.brav.co.uk or if you just want to make a donation no matter how small, go to www.justgiving.com/brav Please note that full details of the rally are not available at the moment but should be within the next 2 weeks. To the Mods !!! sorry for posting in all about soul but wanted maximum publicity. Pictures of our car below are with sponsorship from 2006.

Whos Gunna Carry The Soul Scene On?
Well said Paul, it was the same for me but being 6' 2'' wasn't a problem for me getting in anywhere. But i do remember having to go to the Toilets at Wigan in 2s otherwise you came out with no money or even your Denim Jacket, It was a frightening time when your 16. So pleased its not like that now on our scene for our younger generation.
