[Ivan]

Congratulations to the team; Deano, RK, Bruce et al who produce the magazine - yesterday at VW Action at Santa Pod in the UK the magazine won one of the five Oscars presented at the show!

He will be sent over to So Cal shortly.

Hot VWs has done so much for the VW scene worldwide this is a well deserved award.

Well done.

Ivan, I/we don't really know who to thank for that honor, quite a surprise. This is so special that I have decided to jump aboard an American Airlines 777 this Wednesday, and pick up the award in person. Of course, thanks for giving me your credit card number years ago, I will enjoy first class service all the way to Heathrow, on your behalf. Can you give us more details about the award? See you on Thursday. deano

The organisers of VW Action do an awards ceremony where they award Oscars  for the; ' VW ACTION ‘HALL OF FAME’ REWARDS THE ‘MOVERS & SHAKERS’ . . .
To quote the brochure; 'At VW Action’s 30th Birthday Party in 2005, there was a ‘Mini Oscars’ ceremony to recognise those who have contributed
to the VW Subculture. Each year at VW Action we plan to induct further ‘faces’ into the VW ACTION HALL OF FAME.
VW Action 2006 saw more ‘movers and shakers’ rewarded.
