Name for Trip to France Poll

As there seems to be a slight disagreement on whether some names might not be PC i have added a few to a poll and ask everyone to vote...

Adding others is accepted of course

This will hopefully be the start of an annual event that might involve other countries etc...

wana stick a poll on it then? lol

Edit: I have gone for non PC still not sure though!

great! Ask for a logo then change the name.

Typical

Everyone has an idea - so when the poll is over we will go with this...

Seems the best way - I should have asked first anyway...

me thinks (BullFrog Run 06') so other

paul, can I throw one into the mix?

There is the bull run and the gumball, as britons we are bulldogs

Can we have the bullfrog run?

i like the Frogball 06 best, but as people have said, it aint PC so dont want to be causing any friction.

gone for other, either Roast Beef Run or Bullfrog run.

Where did "Bif" come from Paul? Beef en Francais est Boeuf

who would have guessed my suggestion of Frogball run would have got this far

I think Paul needs to check with the guy thats organising the Frenchy side of things and see how Frogball and Bullfrog would be taken, I know we dont really care what the French call us but they may take it a little badly.

One extra one to throw in to the pot (and its a bit off the wall), I have heard the Supras called Soop Dragons, so we could have Dragonball run, as I say its a bit off the wall but wont offend anybody.

I personally like Bullfrog run as its not wholly offensive...we could say our inspiration is from when the bullfrog was introduced to Australia and it took over the place

Dragonball Run is a great name - should get a cool logo out of that!

I sent the parcel nearly 3 weeks ago by airmail Just checked the tracking info and no record of it on the UK PO website, HK tracking says it left HK on 22nd Feb. I'll get onto the PO here and get them to find out where it is

as there was no real clear winner (and Frogball might get right up the noses of the french people who are going along) I have agreed with Paul that this event needs to be called Dragonball Run 2006.

The primary reason for this is that the name can be used again for any future European runs and it also doesnt seem to have any sort of conflict issues with other car runs to Europe.

I know Frogball Run and Bullfrog Run are great names (I did come up with them after all) but the implications of the French taking offence is not something I want to contemplate when theres 40 Supras parked up surrounded by the French.

Hope that doesnt disappoint anybody too much but we need to be sure we can get out of France alive and with all the primary bits still attached to our cars and to ourselves.

Good call JB

the Rosbifs thing cmoes from the days when the British Navy had sails ... French used to call the english sailors the rosbifs .. a mis pronuncation of Roast Beef.

hey they thought it was funny lol

Good call branners/Paul E

DRAGON BALL RUN 2006 Nice One

And as the Dragon is synonymous with Wales and the slaying of the Englishman George, I am all for it

Paul, I checked with the PO and they said the parcel was actually delivered on the 8th March, can you confirm if you have received it please.
