South Wales Branch September Run.

[santadawes]

In this edition of Minor Matters our branch has advertised a September Run to Swansea.
Because of the lateness of going to press, We have decided to cancel this event.


SORRY....


On the Good side of things. If you enjoyed our Spring Run last April. I am looking into planning next years.


PLUS...... Our Committee are in somewhat in agreement in organising a Welsh Rally for May 22nd. More details will be available very soon.

Any chance we could organise a nice little run/meet around south wales wales somewhere later this month early october, I know Id want to give the pickup one last drive before she goes into hibernation for the winter. Somewhere central to us all?

[MColes]

When I first got a Minor and joined this messageboard 2 years ago I suggested a South Wales run and Millerman suggested a route.

Here's the link to that thread - http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f= ... es#p211654

Any chance we can actually do it? It's only been two years sinced it was planned

[Pikey]

Hi
Well Im well up for that, I heard recently that the railway leading up to the Whistle Inn has been recently extended too.

Is anyone game for a run as per the other thread, perhaps later this month early October, or Mid October on say the 16 or 17th

Regards

[MColes]

Yes they have extended the line, I was up there the other month

[GDL]

yeah i'll be up for that

[Pikey]

Hi all
Ive had a look at the Blaenavon railway and unfortunately they dont have any trains running throughout October except for the 31st when its a ghost tour or something, so it looks as if a quick trip on the railway will not be part of the day.

Also we need at least more than 10 people to become a 'Party' and book a time slot in the Whiste Inn.

Whos game we currently got 3 people?

regards

Steve B

[GDL]

sure my brother in law might be interested

[MColes]

I went to Big Pit Today and had a brilliant time

[badger]

I might be able to make the 17th, think I'm showing chickens at Builth on the 16th!

[Rasputin]

Showing chickens what?

[badger]

How to clean their teeth...

[santadawes]

I have already started to plan a run for next year. Cardiff - Newport - Caerleon - Pontypool - Blaenavon - Blackwood - Caerphilly. It should be great for a late Autumn Run.
Who's up for it?

[MColes]

You know me Ray, I'll be there

[santadawes]

Ok. let's set a date of Sunday 24th Oct.
Any takers?

[Pikey]

Are we talking 2011? But yes count me in please, I really enjoyed the drive it day in april.

Steve B

[santadawes]

No we are talking October 2010 just before the cars go into their garages for the winter.

[Pikey]

Fantastic yes, count me in. Please, Keep me posted.

Any chance you can plan some nice weather?

Steve B

[santadawes]

You can plan all the events you like but the weather is left upto the Big Man.
As a Morris Minor fan I think he will look down and favour us.

So we have.
