August Pub Meet, 18 August 2024

David and Erica have done it again – arranged lovely summer weather for our get-together! A record number of members and friends (31) met during the morning at The Bull in Stanford Dingley and did plenty of catching up while having coffee and biscuits. We were very pleased to see some of our new members and mention must be made of Rod Renfrew and his wife who had travelled all the way from  Lincolnshire in their 1936 680 Cabourg while overcoming many road closures and diversions. After a tasty lunch we all made the short journey to Two Hoots to partake of tea and delicious cakes and crumbles in the garden.

All too soon it was time to say our farewells, but once again our thanks must go to David and Erica for making it such a special day.

32nd AGM - 17th March

Once again 31 members met at Old Boars Hill for our AGM, and we were pleased to welcome new members Stuart & Candy King, Tim Manners-Smith and Jennifer & Neil Stothert. As usual, ‘Ilary’s Atch’ provided coffee on arrival and there was plenty of time to catch up with old friends before the meeting commenced at 11.15 am. During the meeting, among other agenda items, Stuart King was elected as a new committee member and details of our events for the year were announced. Before the meeting closed, awards were presented to Tony Curtis (the Dougal Trophy), Clive Hamilton Gould (Tom Roberts Memorial Trophy) and Christopher Balfour (the Adrian Trophy).

Following the meeting, a delicious lunch was served thanks to the hard work of Toddy Hamilton Gould, ably assisted by Hilary Ledger and ladies who provided desserts. A successful raffle raised £220 and then Michael Edwards showed a video of all the events held in the previous year. It was soon time to say goodbye. Our thanks go to Michael and John for allowing us to meet at their home and to Toddy for dealing with the catering.
