     Hi Helen and Chris,

     

    Rod and I would like to come along to our first Event since joining the OC and we look forward to seeing you all on what promises to be the first sunny Saturday for a while. This will make Rod get on with the various jobs on the car that he has promised to do for ages!

    See you there. Sue and Rod T.

    Hi,

    Right, I've just got to get Jacko off the jacks, tighten up the rear wheels, fit new gaiters on gear leaver and handbreak, then give him a wash and polish and finally off to the meeting point by 11.15.......

    This will be the first run this year, and the first run with the rebuilt engine....... hope it goes ok, or the RAC will be getting a call Whistling

     Fingers crossed........

     Hi Helen.

     

    We're coming: will meet you at King Harold Hillslain Horticultural Heritage Hillock. Should we bring hardtop in case of authentic anniversary arrow assault?

     

    Also very much looking forward to meeting the Archers at the Ambrose Village Fete...

     

    See you soon, Dave + June

     

    P.S. Can't get my emoticons to work - hope you can tell when I'm jesting.

    Thanks to all those who came to the Fete, the sun shone, and it was great to see some new (and of course old!) faces :-)

    "Muppet" - Sorry you couldn't make it and hope your injuries get better soon, so you'll be back to attending meetings.
    Pete and Mandi - Sorry to hear about your clutch problems; hope they're repaired soon and that we'll soon see you at another meeting.
    Nick and Oscar - It was great to meet you, glad you enjoyed the day and hope to see you again soon. Nice photo :-)

     Hello Pete & Mandi,

    Sorry to hear of your problem on Saturday. We are based on Hayling Island too. If you need any advice on how to fix the clutch problem please just shout as I recently had to do that to Sue's MX5. Not difficult, just took time.

    The Awbridge Fete was brilliant. Thank you all for making us so welcome on our first outing.

    Best wishes,

    Rod and Sue.
