January 2004

I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas.  I would like to wish everyone a very happy New Year; above all I hope you will all enjoy good health. In 2003 we witnessed the end of several eras, of significant importance to the Morgan world was of course the sad loss of Peter Morgan.  A number of Morgan Sports Car Club members associated with Thames Valley attended Peter's Memorial service in Malvern to pay their last respects.  It was an honour to be able to be at this service and on behalf of the Centre I would like to thank Peter

December 2003

As you can probably remember back in the summer, with Pam and Mike Aldrich, we had a smashing evening at our annual Centre dinner. Bert Oslar was his normal sensation on the piano. The new venue was a great success with wonderful gardens; the hotel had its own helipad for those that may have found the drive a little too long. And I had the honour of escorting my lovely cousin Lesley to the dinner. During recent personal events Lesley has been very kind to me and it was a great pleasure to be with her. Also there was a

I guess as we approach the winter months things will calm down a little.  However in my opinion we still have two of the best walks left to come during November and December; I hope to see you there. The first Sunday in November is the occasion for the London to Brighton Veteran Car run.  Sexmog organise a great venue for watching this event at Staplefield.  I hope to go along this year, I would highly recommend this day out if you can make it.  I am now taking bookings for the annual Centre Dinner at the Phoenix December noggin.

As I write this report I am returning from a holiday in the Lakes in brilliant sunshine thinking of our picnic by the Thames and how well it must be going. August was a very busy month for the Centre. I would like to thank Ian and Estelle Sollen for their wonderful and purposeful event at Brooklands, Terry Tedman for organising the ultimate day out for steam enthusiasts and Jerry Tanner for our picnic by the Thames.  Having lovely weather on all these occasions is of course a real bonus. Our walk this month will be the one we cancelled

Our Gymkhana at the National Society Epilepsy Centre was a great success. The weather was fantastic being very similar to last year. Hopefully we shall see full writes in the near future. I would especially like to thank Sandra Stuart and David Smith for all the hard work they put into this event. Also I would like to thank all the participants and spectators for taking part and watching respectively on the day. Congratulations to Bill Smallwood and his partner Richard Vodden for winning the SGT Trophy for the event. My natural modesty forbids me for mentioning the couple that

As always we owe a big thank you to Pam and Mike Aldrich for a smashing evening at our annual centre dinner. Bert Oslar was his normal sensation on the piano. The new venue was a great success with wonderful gardens; the hotel had its own helipad for those that may have found the drive a little too long. I had the honour of escorting my lovely cousin Lesley to the dinner. During recent personal events Lesley has been very kind to me and it was a great pleasure to be with her. There was a major happening at the
