It's very tempting, but does clash with the branches liaison meeting :(

To assist Nuffield Place with the catering arrangements, it would be very much appreciated if those intending to come could let me know asap so that I can give them an idea of numbers.

Thank you.

Would love to have supported them but as previously said it clashes with the Branch Liaison Meeting :(

Yes, unfortunately I was not aware of the meeting date when finalising the arrangements. However we have had a good response.

More than 70 cars now booked in. Last chance Wednesday (28th Sept) folks.

Sorry, it appears this has caused some confusion. What I mean by booking is letting me know that you are coming, as stated in MM Hope this clarifies the situation.

That's it folks, we now have more than 80 cars registered with us as requested in Minor Matters.

IMPORTANT

Due to the high number of cars registered for this event, we would ask that no one arrives before 11.00 am. The gates will not be opened until then, and the narrow road outside Nuffield Place is unsuitable for the queuing of such a large number of vehicles prior to entry.

Bill
Is the House open to the General Public on Sunday?
80 Morris Minors must be an attraction

PS At long last it appears that we have achieved getting all of the Oxon & Berks Branch 6 Series ~MM's together in one place. :D

UPDATE

With a cheque from the MMOC for £400, plus £260 raised during MOT-UK, and £300 collected on the day, a grand total of £960 was donated to the National Trust's Nuffield Place Appeal at the open day on Sunday.

Well done everyone.

Next years event is already in the wings.
