May club night was Bring your Vehicle to the club night.
We had a lovely night at the club with a good turnout. So thanks to all who took the time to come to show your exhibits. The weather was good to us it was a pleasure to be out in the sunshine. It was a good night and we all had a good chin wag catching up on your trials and tribulations of owning vintage vehicles. It’s never easy to preserve them. Parts are getting harder and harder to source as well as the expertise to help put things right when things go wrong. We need to keep them on the road so this generation can enjoy then as much as we do.
We judged them and this is the list of awards winners.

You would think that taking off a snail’s shell would make it move faster, but it actually just makes it more sluggish.
