Hi Fellow Enthusiasts. Well, I wonder what weather the next two months will throw at us. At the moment we seem to alternate between about 6 and 16. A perfect recipe for colds.

I guess all the Christmas/New Year Parties are now out of the way and you are looking forward to getting out and about on the road again. We have had a few notifications about early “Spring Runs” , one of which is mentioned below.

St Helens Classic Car Association
This Club have organised a Charity Run on Sunday April 26 2009 in aid of "Children with Leukaemia". From Parr St Peters field, St Helens, Lancashire for a short drive around the suburbs then back to the field for a static display for a couple of hours. Cups/shields for winners of different classes of vehicles and a best of show award. .Entry fee, hot drinks & raffles on the day with all profits going to the charity. Come on, give your classic a run out and help the children’s charity. For details contact Dave Jones on 01744 637052 or davidjones66@blueyonder.co.uk or http://www.brmmbrmm.com/sthcca .
