Greetings Mike,
I'm familiar with Old Number One but only through pictures ( colour me green
with envy that you rode shot-gun).
Regarding Colin's TA It IS an odd 'T' isn't it. The owner is the
'president' of the local "Pre-56 MG Un-club" also known as the Pre-56 MG
Grazing Society ( it has something to do with ALL our events ending in
either a restaurant or, more likely, a pub).
Are you planning on making the pilgrimage to GOF West this year? It will be
my first GOF. I'm taking the TC, the wife, the kids, the truck, the
trailer and making a multi-week event out of it. Should be some interesting
conversations in the campgrounds with the TC parked in front of the trailer
and the truck out of sight (probably searching for a mall, if you know what
I mean.....)
I look forward to putting some faces to the names there.
Cheers,
