Re: South Cerney

Hi Andrew

I went on the Saturday in my Yukon Grey Traveller - also under 948 power - great show - I love the fact that you see so much of the steam stuff in action all day long.

Re: When is the next AGM ?

I see we have the usual lack of interest for the AGM - should be a nice cosy meeting, we can all sit around the top table :D

I was bidding on this as well but final price was £160+ so a tad too high for me :(

Re: 2013 MMOC National Rally

Thanks very much for that. I'm guessing that I'll have wait to nearer the time to book a place for the judging of the vehicles and entrance ticket ? (I have a restored '68 Minor van that I'd like to see inspected) As this is a mixed club event on a large scale there will be no judging taking place,...

Hi,
I love steam too, so I looked Tyseley up on the web as I hadn't heard of it before and I'm glad I did, as it seems to be worth a visit, although it doesn't seem to be open very often.



Back in the day :D B/ham branch held their rally at Tyseley.....it was good

Re: Shipside Limited, Loughborough

Tom Shipside opened his Morris dealership in 1913 in Nottingham - I'm not sure when the Loughborough branch opened but my father worked there in the early 50s. I have a 1953 saloon that was supplied by T. Shipside in Nottingham.

T. Shipside did build Tollerton Airfield in 1928.
