Type colour?

Post by Squiggle »

I think we should all type in the colour of our vehicle :wink:

If you have more than one vehicle, multicolour type?



In Empire Green...........

The problem with coloured type is that it can make it very difficult to read posts. When the board was 'revamped' earlier this year the initial light grey text caused some problems so probably best to stick to something that the majority of board members can see :D

Oh you're just no fun :lol:

I realise Old English White presents a problem........ :roll:

Is my Empire Green legible? Need to match my hot water bottle too.

Happy Easter!

Hmmm. Might be a problem. But if you're going to the National, they won't let you in without a matching hottle bottle.....it's a new requirement. :wink:

Maybe someone could knit/crochet a cosey in the right colour with a MMOC logo on it...........?

Regalia????

Wondering about making some with felt.......

Any needlepersons on here that can advise?

Can order a cloth badge from the club...then attach it.

Ooooh someone with a posh sewing machine could embroider the registration number???

This idea doesn't break any rules does it?
