MG Car Club of South Australia
PRE-WAR & T REGISTER From... John Bray
2 March 2016 Brian & Kath Golding ' s Murray Bridge
The MG Palooza at the River.
The Crafers Hotel carpark, given a jolt by the assembled members eager to get on with the run to Goldy ' s, Murray Bridge. Patrons arriving for dinner were somewhat put out however the hot night ensured that beers flowed freely out to drivers and passengers alike, phew!
Bad luck descended upon A Register member Geoff Goode in his A with starter motor breakdown in the carpark, an unfortunate scratching to the event.
This was the end of the hot night, it got progressively colder on the way to the Gold ' s ranch.
Thanks to Brian and Kath for hosting members of both registers, 42 signed in but there were at least 6-7 more, 16 T Types, 1 YA, 1 WA, & 1 MGA managed to negotiate the limestone gravel into Goldy’ s yard. Brian’ s vintage Vin-
24
cent motorcycle and sidecar was a highlight in the shed. Amazing story that it was assembled from parts all around the globe, single cylinder engine, would you believe that some poor beggar in Brazil is still searching for that single cylinder numbered pot eh Brian?
Apologies. Ken Fisher, Peter Cundy, John Neilson, TD Mc Nabb, Maurice Linehan, Peter Auld, Bob & Shelly Bazzica, Geoff Glasson( late breakdown held up) & Reginald O ' Malley
Visitors. From the UK we welcomed Gordon & Gaynor guests of Inspector Buckles. Gordon had the sheer delight of steering the wandering TC from Crafers to the meeting under supervision of course. Gaynor was escorted in the V8 B driven by Lachy Kinnear, yes great to see both of Buckles cars on the run. Great friends indeed, some stories about Bucks exploits were aired, now we know where the famous steering wheel came from.
