In todays Daily Mail.

There is to be a memorial service for Richard at,
St Lukes Church
Sydney Street (oppersite the Royal Brompton Hospital)
London

At 11.00am on the 22nd December.

A family member said,

"This special service should be a celebration of Richard's life and those attending are encouraged to dress accordingly

 

anyone feel an impreza meet coming on? I would probably be up for it.

 

does this mean we get to wear subaru attire?

hopefully this will give us (The RB5 Owners club) enough time to get the total donations fund together and to present a final cheque to Cancer Research

 

bump

 

LOL

 

How easy is it to get scoobies there?

 

probably easier to get one beforehand

 

Are we starting a list,im in the midlands

 

sounds like a plan and I will be in the country this time.

 

It's been reported that Richard's family wish everyone to celebrate his life and career, so it's not as daft sounding as you think.

I know some of the lads over on the RB5 club would like to arrive with their cars to show their respect.

 

Deffo would do this Top bloke Richard was

 

Multimap of St Lukes here

 

Where we meeting in the midlands

 

could we arrange a meet up point round Reading aswell! if there is anyone from Reading interested in going that is????

And bollox to the congestion charge I have German Number plates

 

PMSL!

Jamo fancy a mini convoy down there mate?

 

yeah I am up for that mate

 

I thought more people would have signed up

I don't want to take my scoob (a girl driving and navigating at the same time..lol).

I might look at going by train.

 

i doubt very much that there will be any room to get many scoobs around.

i'm gutted i cant make this

 

I would've thought most people on here would go

 

btt

 

I would love to attend but work commitments this time of year puts pay to that.

I will do my up most during my work hours to pay respect to a man that has been a true ambassador of the sport and showed many other sufferers and a like the strength to go on during his illness. God bless him.

I work next door to the MSA in Colnbrook and I could find out if they are doing there own service if you like for anyone who is unable to attend the London?

I can't make this either because of work, is their anyway of doing our own service and asking Richars's family along so the cheque could be presented to them.
Cheers
Colin

 

I am working too that day, but willing to book the day off.

I don't think Richards family would want to go to another service.
They have the 22nd open to all.

 

Anyone?

 

Basically just a bump for interest. I shall be there.

 

sounds a fair idea
i'm up for part of a midlands convoy...

let us know the meet point.

 

Hi guys and gals, just for some information, this service will be broadcast over the net at www.wrc.com and www.richardburns.com from 11am on the 22nd December.

 

Is it possible to record the service? I've tried to get the day off but so close to Christmas it's impossible?

 

I was in the privileged position to be able to attend this morning. It was a fitting occasion, with St Luke's packed full, and with his original (restored) Peugeot 205 GTI and Subaru WRC cars parked outside.

There were readings from Jon Desborough, a close friend, his sister, Steve Ryder and Jeremy Clarkson.

Other recognisable attendees included Tiff Needell, Dave Richards and Max Mosley.

I shall treasure the order of service booklet forever.

 

I saw Central news and they interviewed Sir Dave richards and Clarkson.

I thought i spied a chap from the RB5 Owners club carrying a large Cheque in the background
