Default Help Needed.....

Guys & Girls

We have had a bit of a rare request today,
I have received a call from a Gentleman asking for a small procession of some scoobies to follow the funeral vehicles of his 15 yrs old brother who sadly passed away early this week, This young lad was a avid Scoobie fan who's ambition was to own his own scoob after he would have passed his test.

This Gentleman has requested to be loud and flamboyant as possible.

This requirement is for Friday 27th Feb 13:15.

If anyone is able to assist in rare request please can you contact me asap and I can forward you further details.
Please guys can we make a massive effort and support the family of this young lad whose life was sadly cut short.

Many Thanks
Kaz

Quit touching i must admit.

Sadly I am based in South London but if anyway I am in the area nearer the time, I would def have played my part for this family. I recall when I was a kid how I use to watch rallying on the tv, and wished one day I would own one.

Incidently do we know how this young kid passed away? I ask this if say it were through say a car accident or incurable disease, we could perhaps raise a few bob in honour for him and pass this to a charity chosen by his family? This is to show the caring side of the scooby owners.

If I still had my Scooby I'd do it, but my Skoda wouldn't be what they want

Sympathies to the family.

Kaz,

Could you please find out if the family are doing a collection or nominating a charity for people to make contributions to as I can play my part since chances are I will not be able to attend. Unless if someone wants to come to South London to borrow the modded wr1!
