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 .
