What a wonderful month September has been. I know many of you have taken time away,
myself included, and made the most of it. So good to see so many of you and the classics
around at the shows too. A big thank you to those who supported our car display at
Hatfield House, which was a very relaxing day out.
Sadly member and long time personal friend Colin Tilling died suddenly last week. He was a
very skilled man and had taken care of our Rileys for 30 years. Some of you will remember
Reg Green. He used to volunteer in the shop, was never a member, but a great supporter
until dementia prevented him from continuing. I last saw him pre-covid when he came on a
visit.
Our meetings in September have been very poorly attended. What a shame as Dennis gave
us a most interesting view of some of his toys collected over 35 years as you can see in the
picture and David and Lesley gave us a whistle stop tour of their ports of call on their
journey of a lifetime. The presentation was very professional with soundtrack as well as
Lesley\u2019s commentary.
October Events:
Monday 9 th Our meeting will take place in the afternoon from 1.45-3.15. It will be a
spotlight on Clive Cooke with tea\/coffee and cake. This is to see if we can encourage more
members and their guests to come along in daylight as we know driving in the dark is
getting more problematic for some of our regulars. If it works we will do this for meetings in
January and February.
Monday 23 rd 7.30 We have Steve Waddingham coming to talk to us about Aston Martins.
He comes a long way so do come along if you can. Apologies to those who have work
commitments.
Sunday 29 th Open Day with a second visit of the Old Geezers Hot Rod to the Museum. A
show not to be missed. Please park off-site and enjoy the atmosphere.
The newsletter has gone to be printed and will be with you soon. Thanks to John and all the
contributors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
