Dear Don,Since I have this opportunity, I would just like to say I’ve nearly hung up my Don Barrow light after many years of trusty service, but would like to add a thank you for adding so much fun getting to grips with maps! It’s a real shame that even stage rallies now have succumbed to the notes. (Mind you, I should have patented my “mouse hole” to put my hand inside – always lost the place without my finger on the spot!)
Regards, Stella Boyles
Tom Frost - 30 January 2003 - Portsmouth
Hello Don, Thanks very much for the supply of C5000 timers in 24 hours. Fantastic service! They work perfectly and are just what we needed (They will be used to time runners in my running clubs future racing events). The best aspect of them is the large digits and ease of operation . Great product.
Regards, Tom Frost, Liss Runners.
David Ford - 31 December 2002 - Warrington USA
Don, I received your shipment yesterday. Your book (M1 Average Speed Tables) exceeded my expectations.
Regards, David Ford
Dear Don,
The clocks (C5000) arrived last week and we used them at the weekend for our 2 day event - with great success. I would just like to thank you for your efforts in getting our order to us so quickly and efficiently.
Regards, Geraldine Bellew
TJ wrote - Having borrowed a potti on the last road rally I did (and got on with it quite well), I've decided I'd like to splash out and get one (but I only want to make a small splash!). Can anyone recommend a good place to purchase such an item? I have checked the Don Barrow website and although these items look quite impressive (for a magnifying glass and a light bulb) they do seem to be a bit of an overkill and while 70 quid is not a fortune, I do have plenty of other things to spend the extra on. Something that magnifies and produces a nice white light will be more than adequate. Any suggestions?Dr JU replied to TJ - I have had two "??", one "???" and two Don Barrow "pottis" (they are all map magnifiers). The "??" is no longer available (the lens is very difficult to source). I find "???" dreadful to use, the (Acrylic) lens is c*ap. They are cheap and that's it. There is no choice: DB Potti or nothing. My two penny worth for what it isn't.
Regards, JEU
Shon Gosling - 20th March 2002 - England
Hi Don, Just a line to congratulate you on your A to Z, it really is a first class exercise. No navigator should enter a rally without doing this first, it's very comprehensive and gives a real insight into what to expect.
I am sure that it helped me on my first HRCR rally, the national B, Powderham Historic Rally of Devon. We came 17th and 2nd in class. Worth every penny.
Thanks, Shon Gosling.
Jacqes Querton - 27nd February 2002 - Belgium
Dear Don,
I just receive the Retrotrip 2 and accessories ordered last Saturday and I would like to thank you very much for your prompt action.
Kind regards, Jacques.
20th February 2002 - Liem Boelli - Holland
Hello Don, Received the goods in perfect order to day (after 3 work days!). Great service. After driving around for some days, searching for good rally equipment, I want to say to everybody do not look further but order it by e-mail at Don Barrow's.
Thanks, Liem - The Hague - Netherlands.
5th February 2002 - Eustace Maniatis - Greece
Thank you for your prompt attention. Wish to let you know that I just received the diskette with the Tulip road book editor I had ordered previously and a fine product it is, well done. Eagerly awaiting the hardware thank you again
4th February 2002 - Simon Bertie-Roberts - Jersey
Hi Don, a quick mail to say thank you very much for your fast and efficient
service, living in Jersey we are often told that something is in the post
and a parcel eventually arrives 2 weeks later. I phoned my order through to
you on the Wednesday and received the parcel on the Friday .......... once
again thank you. Regards, Simon Bertie-Roberts.
18th January 2002 - Christian Edstrom - USA
Hi Don, I received my MK RB8 today and tested it. It works great, and I love the rheostat function. As you may know, most US performance rallies are run
blind, so having the map magnifier will help tremendously. It's a very
solid piece of kit; I'm looking forward to years of use out of it.
Cheers! - Christian, Christian Edstrom, Principal Consultant, Customer Acceleration Services, Corio, Inc.
4th December 2001 - David Homewood - France
Don,
I did mean to congratulate you on your web site. Quite the best I've come across for ease of use and exceedingly well connected. David.
17th November 2001 - Paddy Hopkirk - England
Dear Don, Very nice website but I need a map magnifier that plugs into the cigar lighter socket. If you have this please send me 2 of the basic (02) models.
Yours sincerely, Paddy Hopkirk.
22nd October 2001 - Manuel Gonzalez - Spain
Dear Don,
Few months ago, I bought a RetroTwin II and a Chronograph from your company, and I have installed them in my Audi 100 Coupe S. They work nice.
Last weekend we've got a third position (of 46 teams) in the Hipercor Rallye of the Challenge 2001 !!!
Best regards. Manuel Gonzalez, Computer People, Madrid.
15th October 2001 - Tony Ettlinger - UK
Don,
Talk about fast service!! Many thanks - I have to say that our new pottie is outstanding, and we are really pleased with it. Look forward to continuing business with you. If I ever make the time I'll be up for a personal navigation course!
Very best regards,
Tony Ettlinger.
I promised to let you know how we got on.
We finished 'Prix des alpes' in 4th position out of 49 cars (using DB Average Speed Tables) we also got the highest MGB award! Many thanks for all your help and advice. We found the 'NOW' method of calling, (Regularity as taught in my 1 day school) excellent and I am sure we would not have done so well without your course. Many thanks.
17th July 2001 - Roger Cope - Germany
Just to say thank you for sending my order so quickly. It was very well, not to say beautifully, packed and arrived complete and undamaged.
22nd June 2001 - Marcel Fruytier - The Netherlands
The Compass (COM) which we received was a wonderfull tool for us in the Tulip Rally. We managed to finish Second Overall and First in Class.
We need another Compass plus one to give as a present. I therefore would like to order two more Compasses.
5th June 2001 - Gerhard Zeinitzer - Austria
Congratulation to your perfect service. All the items, which I ordered last week, arrived already in Vienna!
5th May 2001 - Manuel Gonzalez - Spain
I have received this morning my order from the UK, so it has been quite fast.
10th November 2000 - Roy Hatfield - England
Much appreciated your helping my boys hopefully! in the right direction.
13th September 2000 - Dr John Upham - England
Matthew Fowle and I used your 'Cagelight'(CAG) to great effect on a Road Rally last weekend. We used it in conjunction with a Don Barrow Map magnifier. Anyway a nice light and please quote me if you wish (Sure will).
6th March 1985 - Ian Grindrod - England
Thanks so much for the DB Light (RB8) maximum publicity will be my main objective.
Is the Red bulb for use when navigating through 'seedy' areas?
19th December 1984 - Neil Wilson - England
You may recall you supplied me with one of your navigation lights (RB8) at the end of November this year, which I took with me to the United States, and I would like to say how much I appreciated this excellent facility which did, undoubtedly, help John Buffum and myself secure the rally championdhip ot the U.S.A.
I most certainly will recommend, whenever I can, the use of your navigation equipment to other co-drivers wherever I travel throughout the world.
