October Monthly News Letter
Hi All
I trust you are well.
September kicked off with Italian Cars and Coffee at the Pike and Eel Hotel and Marina, organised by Tony & Chesca, another broad selection of cars parked up in the stunning setting by the river. Plenty of Alfas of course, Ferrari’s, Maserati, original Fiat 500’s etc. another great showing at The Pike & Eel. Images are on the Section page on the club website here and on our Facebook page too. Pike and Eel
The September monthly meet at the Manger was a small one, it would have been a bigger one, but Juliette and I had covid, and some others couldn’t make it on the night for various reasons. What we did discover, it is never a problem until it is, was the deep gravel car park was not wheelchair friendly and to be fair, old pubs with limited space aren’t that accessible either. Clearly something we will need to pay more attention to in future, at least the food was still good!
We still have plenty to do before the end of the year, if you’re interested in coming to the AGM and Christmas meal, now is the time to start letting me know if you haven’t already, both are 50% booked up.
