They often keep a few spaces for locals. Focused Events always booked on many locals. The numbers are often them amount they can fit in the trucks.
Local ?? you do realise over 1000 miles away and another country isnt exactly local
You know what I mean
Nobody from the UK is gonna book on as a reserve. But if they come the last day, it's more than likely a few spaces will have become clear

These are obviously only an idea on a theme, but may be a good reminder for people of the trip etc. Colours, styles, etc can be changed, swapped, so can text colour, style, font, etc. But let me know any thoughts.

Oooo- we could be proper Brits abroad!
Seriously though, I'd have a T-short at least-It would be better with the RTTL logo underneath the circuit on the back rather than the text as currently though IMO , might even entice me into a hoodie then too

That may be slightly tough, but i could have a try.
Edit : My attempt was what's commonly known as bloody rubbish, so i've pinged our logo expert and asked if it's something he can do quickly.... if so... then maybe

My missus laughed and said "this makes it look like a proper boys trip .... are there going to be stag night type pusssssssaaaaay patrol logos"
Joking aside, the t shirts look like a good idea as hopefully it will be nice and warm

In our company weekly update, there was a warning that travellers will need to have over 6 months remaining on passports - and that is on 10 year passports. If you have a 15 year one, the final 5 years won't count.

To be fair the 6 months on a 10 year passport has always been a thing for non EU travel. It was a check i always made on my visits to Turkey over the past few years and we had to update the wifes passport early because of this.
Its the same as Brits living abroad suddenly being told they can only stay 3 months at a time and being in uproar. Every 3 months cross a border, get a stamp and the 3 months starts again as 1000's of Brits living in Turkey have been doing for years. Day trip on the ferry from Bodrum to Kos and back covers it

This may not be the final design, but there's likely to only be 1 more version if this isn't doing it for people

Obviously the back of the blue needs sorting to 'clear' rather than white.

I'm curious to see how it looks on a transparent one if the graphics wizard can sort it, because then it clashes less.
We'll see what the next few days bring.

Weirdly in the App, some colours show the white of the background on the back, some don't.

Just to be awkward i prefer the back on the grey one and the front on the blue one
Can it say Portimao 2021 on the back like a proper tour T shirt ? (just a thought, feel free to say fuck off

)

The issue is, we're going to end up with 14 different designs. So we either pick 1, or we don't bother

I like the small rttl logo on the front, then on the back, map with portimeo 2021 underneath. Somebody might have already said that.

Some will have no idea what the map is without Portimao written underneath, if that matters.
Up to you Weeksy and thanks for giving us something to look forward too, top man.

Right then fellas. This is the final design. Some may like it, some may not, but i can't go with 45 different designs, well, technically i could put 30 different ones up here... but... you're either getting this one.. in whatever colour you like of course.
Or you're not getting one
