February Club Meeting Update
Hi everyone,
It was great to see so many of you at Club Night. It was such a grey and wet day that even I had the roof up on my car.
General news
It was nice to welcome another new member, Brian Page. He has two MGBs, a roadster undergoing a full restoration and a GT for trips to the supermarket.
Ian Camerons internment will be held on 10th February, followed by drinks/sandwiches at the Five Bells. His MGs had been an important part of his life. A number of us will be going in our MGs. All Saints Church, Chalgrave Road, Chalgrave, Bedfordshire, LU5 6JN
I have received a letter from someone who has written a book on converting a rubber bumper to chrome bumpers. It can be obtained from the MGOC Bookshop or direct from peter@mileham.net
