I think option two, would be best, if I was in Chris's family, the last thing I would want to be reminded of would be the car and its colour Anyway, thanks Y or B for stepping up J

[Sutol]

Thanks H for doing this, its really appreciated. I knew Chris for all but a short while. He always had time to talk to me at the various meets even though I'm an old fart! Very saddened by all this. I know that Chris was quite proud of the fact that Colmar blue was such a rare colour for the VX. I also know how proud he was of his car. For those reasons i would favour any tribute which was as close to colmar blue as you could get it. Thanks again H

It may be best to play it safe, no one will be offended by No. 2

Either of the first 2 options would be my choice. Well done Y or B for arranging all of this, you've done a superb job.

[Yellow_or_black?]

Oh Christ, I don't know what to do now

My gut is option two - I hope everyone is happy with this choice. If it is possible, I will ask the florist to replace one of the stems with a single blue flower. Does this seem like a good compromise? It may not be possible though.

So, the flowers will be £60 + £3.99 delivery = £64. My suggestion is that all those who would like to contribute to the flowers state your contribution amount below, and the total left - until we get to £0. Nothing is too small - so please give what you can. I will then PM all of you my PayPal acount, and if you could please donate there. Once completed, I will order the flowers and post up a receipt here. I haven't heard back from Zoe with an address, so bear with me for confirmation. I'd like to be ready to order though

Likewise, once I have heard from her I will set up the Just Giving page in memory of Chris - for everyone to donate. If it is possible, I will acknowledge on the Just Giving page everyone who donated to the flowers.

Hope this is ok with everyone.

I worry a little that references to the car and colour may upset them a little given the circumstances. Well done YoB
