I was deeply saddened to learn the devastating news recently, of the passing of Colin Gordon. We had only just learnt of Colin's illness; Frank Lomax had made contact with Colin when he hadn't met up with him as expected at Buxton, for the international Morgan meeting. Colin was an active member of Togmog and he was beginning to become more involved with our Centre, hence his friendship with Frank. Colin enjoyed his time with his Morgan and the friends he had made with us and Togmog. Colin was keen on motorsport so he found kindred spirits in us. On

I hope the noggins dates didn't confuse anyone last month; I apologise for my mistake. While writing this month's report I noticed that due to some form of astigmatism, I had picked up the days in August for July. If I had done this in February/March I would have got away with it. This is what happens when you write a centre report on a wet bank holiday Monday while watching a re-run of three men in a boat, on one of those Freeview channels. When their dog tumbled into the lock, it did worry me. However, their cruise on

After the excitement of MOG 2010, we have a busy month ahead of us. I know many of you will be heading off for Classic Le Mans. I wish you all bon voyage.

Last month I mentioned Terry Tedman may be going to buy another Morgan, to replace the Duke who is now living as a non domicile in France. All Morgan sports cars find their way back to Malvern someway or other; or I like to think so. I have found, at times, that as I point the nose of my Morgan along that long straight road with the Malvern Hills looming majestically ahead, the engine beats a little faster and runs a smidge smoother. I certainly experience this as I approach my spiritual home. Anyway back to the point, I am

I was sorry to learn that our very own Terry Tedman has just sold his Morgan, the Duke, that only last summer featured in Classic and Sports Car magazine. The Duke now lives in France. I know Terry has had his eye of the 4/4 Sports - a super car with a high revving engine, just the job. Whatever you do Terry I know your time with Morgan ownership has been enjoyable. Terry´s son will be going back to Afghanistan shortly with the Army as a pilot officer. I know he has already completed several tours of duty with his

I was sorry to learn that Kevin Newton was taken into hospital over the Christmas and New Year period. Kevin is back at home now resting after his operation. On behalf of the Centre, I would like to send our best wishes to Kevin for a speedy recovery. Our thoughts are with Pam and Kevin at this time. On a happier note we have news from Mike Aldrich as follows of a special 40th Anniversary Dinner to be held at our first Thursday noggin venue - the Bird In Hand. The other month I had half a pint of a
