Thanks for the early heads-up Shaun. I've been meaning to go to an Abingdon show for a few years but never got time off. Now I have no excuse...

Wasn't the RAF formed on April Fools' Day? If you can't take a joke, you shouldn't have joined...

Now then, its that time again. How many of you are up for this years Abingdon Air and Country Show?
I have a few cars lined up but the more the merrier. £5 driver plus £3 for passenger. All takings to the Air Ambulance. The organisers have had to increase costs to exhibitors mainly due to insurance costs rising significantly.
A great event, as those who have been before will know!
Let me know and Ill sort out a JOC presence. Got to show those pesky MG's on their home ground!

Sadly it looks as if I will not be able to make it this year either...
If our holiday plans don’t work out for any reason I’ll try and come along.

Put me and HNX 300K on the list please Shaun. Its got a very noisy clutch release bearing at the moment, but I'm an Abingdon boy so only a mile to travel. Hopefully It'll be fixed in time, if not, bring ear defenders :D
