MG Northumbria Classic Vehicle Show

Ok Chris, will do best to get there ASAP, just have to fly home, quick change and out, we won't be there to long anyway will we, just a scout about and chat really. See you then

Theres always someone cleverer than yourself ! Andy is the look up to Ramside on this Wednesday ? What time  are people meeting there, I work until 7.20pm so unless I can get a half day won't get there until 8 ish

Looks like you had a good day.   Wish I was there!

When's the next show we are doing? 

Actually, it was a 1987 Alfa 75 with 20k miles on it. The Volvo got best-of-the-rest.

If I was a bitter man I'd say it was too unreliable to do more miles than that!

I'm being philosophical about it (and saving for a bumper respray!).

Second place on my first attempt isn't too bad.

Thanks for the compliment!

  Mick just a thought  next year  lets avoid  the same date , 60 yrs since
VE day and  we turn up in German Cars

Thanks to all who turned up, in particular Stevie and Malcolm who travelled down from Scotland, Neil and Colin for sorting out the gazeebo, Lizzy PB for deciding to show her Baur TC1 with us instead of bringing her MG (wise choice), Terry for sorting out some of the details I'd missed and everyone else - Graham, Paul, Alan, Andy, Chris, Cal and Mrs Cal and Barbara - total of 15 cars, plus all their families and friends.

It was also nice having Mick from Motorforce showing up, plus Jonathon and one or two other familiar faces. 

A number of flyers were handed out, so hopefully we may be attracting some new members.

I was pleased that meeting at the lay-by - allowing us to sort out our display in advance - seemed to work. I'll never forget the length of the convey to Dilston and the looks on the faces of those coming in the opposite direction - shame Chris Coasting couldn't make it as no doubt we'd have a couple of pics taken while on the move.

There are a few more pics here www.mgnorthumbria.org

The organisors say that if the landowners allow a similar event next year, we'll be more than welcome - hopefully we'll have twice as many cars! 

Cheers,

Mick 

I have over 100 pictures of the event but can't seem to upload them...help ! What I'll do instead is bring them to the meeting on Wednesday, maybe someone there can advise me how to do it.  Great day out, nice to meet everyone, lets hope this becomes a regular event as there was such a good BMW turnout

Didn't you get a picture of my fanbelt, Chris?
