Devon Austin Seven Club - Widecombe Fair

This famous annual fair was originally a livestock fair, but is now an entertainment packed day out! Sheep shearing
competitions, cattle, sheep and pony classes, vintage cars and agricultural machinery.
There is live folk music in the beer tent from 10.00am through to midnight, good local food to be tried, main ring
entertainment to be enjoyed and loads of interesting stalls to
explore. To see you into the evening there is bale throwing and tug of war and with on going entertainment in the beer tent, there is something for everyone.
Last year, the weather was not the best, but we are hoping for a sunny day this year and are once again having a Devon A7 Club stand. It really is a great day out, a real traditional country fair, and although it is now too late to book your A7 in, you will be most welcome to visit us and enjoy the day. Due to limitations on space, we will not be able to provide any refreshments, but there are plenty of alternative food and drink suppliers on the show field.
If you would like further details, please contact Colin Towle on 07835 423517 or preferably by e-mail: cc.towle2262@gmail.com

Surrey: Brooklands Reunion

Brooklands Museum, Weybridge, Surrey
Great event remembering the race meetings of old, held each year at the Brooklands Museum.
Pre WWII cars, motorcycles and bicycles are invited to park inside the museum (Via the Campbell gate, no need to pre-register) re enacting the scenes at Brooklands in the pre war years.
Pre-registered cars will be in action climbing the test hill, parading the Mercedes Benz World track, and the highlight of the day, the re enacting of race starts up the start finish straight and onto the banking.
This year the museum will be unveiling the full size working replica of the original 12 metre tall score board.
For more details directions and pricing see the Brooklands Museum website HERE

I am pleased with my Austin Led sign (my Avitar) just collected today.
It is destined for the garage as the living room was deemed not suitable.
Anyone who might be interested contact Ian Hoole <wypwa7@gmail.com>
