Hi All
Our first meet of the year on a foul night saw a small but hardy group at the Four Horseshoes at Thornham Magna. Hearty food and much laughter as always. Do come and try meeting up with us next time we are meeting in your area.
Shortly after our visit to the Four Horseshoes, Guy Swarbrick messaged to say he had stayed at the pub and sent me some great aerial footage and photos taken with his drone, great images, but then as we know, he is a professional photographer!
We have a very busy series of events this year, in some new areas and venues, plus some Sunday morning Car and Coffee meets which are getting very popular, we also have a major clash in September with three on the same day, let me know your choices! See below;

Sunday 16th April Spring Alfa Day next year will be on the 16th April at Duxford Imperial War Museum Obviously they will want a good turnout of section members to marshal, who will get free entry of course!
Since we were last there as a club, they have rejuvenated the American Air Museum so a great selection of Alfas and an updated American Hall to see and all the usual attractions, the workshops are always worth a visit.
Further details will of course follow.
Looking Further Ahead! Clash Alert!!!
We have three events on the same day, we are of course free to go to all, but do we need to pick one as the ‘prime’ section event, do let me know your thoughts!

I hope to see you soon
