Morris Minor Owners Club

Anybody going to this?
http://www.svr.co.uk/SpecialEvents.aspx, then click on 'Sounds of the 60s for the details.
60s Minors invited, so see this web link, or the notice in the current (March-April) Minor Matters, page 6.
If you are there, in a Minor or not, say 'hi' to the guys with the Froggie Moggie, a white convertible, it's coming all the way from here (Lot valley, SW France) with Chris Hall & Mick Archer. Mick's a train buff, so much so that even some of the engines on the line are his!

Hi. I went last year and although we had a very cold weekend we (my wife and myself) enjoyed it very much. Lots to see & do. Loads of interesting vehicles. I can't make it this year as I am organising our South Wales Branch rally in Cardiff.
Good luck with your travells.[frame][/frame]

I'm going!!!!!!!!

i'll be there!

i'll probably be shunned for having a modified car, but i could argue that they're mostly 'period' modifications!

apparently most of the minors will be all together at one station, not sure which one, but i think that's the one i'll be at!

Bridgenorth (oops!)

Are you paying to go? Day rover tickets are 'spensive!!

Chris is getting ready to leave for the UK, driving up to Le Havre tomorrow for the 5pm boat which means a 4am start from here.

Had a lovely day today!! The weather held up which was a suprise!!

I took some photies too - http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set= ... 79a8781ace Feel free to do any tagging

Great pictures!

Well as you can see from Katie's pics Chris & the moggie made it!
he called last night to say it was a great weekend.

Haha he certainly seem to be enjoying himself ;)

Well i made it... eventually! set out nice and early, got about a mile and my headgasket gave up!

having had them go before on other engines i new exactly what it was, so did a u-turn, ditched it at home, and hitched a ride with my parents!

a quick 'thumb test' this evening tells me it's gone between 1 and 2. That'll keep me occupied in the 4 days i've got before setting of for MOT2011!

4 days! An hours work, two at most, with one tea break!

i know. i'm lucky! if i had done less miles recently, it'd have gone on the way to the ferry! or in the middle of france! at least i've got plenty of time to get it done!

Duh, I got caught by a speed camera at Chartres on the way up! 76kph in a 70kph. It happens.
Katie, hope you pass your test soon!!!
Got back OK......1504 miles in total.
If get permission from BIGBOSS just might be back next year!

Chris (and Mick with the trains on the line)
