MG Car Club of South Australia
PREWAR & T REGISTER 5 January 2017 Meeting , Arthur Ruediger ’ s 28 Huntingdale Ave West Lakes ,
The magic of MG in King Arthur ’ s Castle , triple M magic !
eminiscent of the scene 1 from

R Shakespeare ’ s Macbeth I say , well an adaptation really , “ When shall we three meet again . In thunder lightning , or in rain “ I cannot recall or maybe can any others , attending a meeting of the Register with three sensational prewar MG ’ s present in the one place in company of many T series cars so beautifully presented . Can be described as a world class event you would think , very well done everybody and thankyou to Bob Bazzica , J2 , Peter Cundy , NA & King Arthur , ND for the display , see photos on the website . Apologies : Yes there were a few , J Tamke , G Brice , G Glasson , K Fisher , B Forth , D Hosking , D Kemp , D Fairbrother , Reg O ’ Malley & Hon . S Ley MP ( Gold Coast ). Reg has been hospitalised and is recovering , all of us wish him well . Thankyou Artfur for hosting your annual and privileged January meeting this year , any drop in standards will see it moved , however this year was a standout and you are safe for 2018 . Signed in were 37 members , 22 register vehicles , 3 prewar MG ’ s . The slick Mustang parked at the front was not given a ticket however it did carriage several unnamed members to the meeting . Irving Cup : Thanks to Peter Auld for returning back so that it can be awarded again this year at Peter ’ s

20
Register meeting in February at Torrens Park . The results of the 2016 winner are now known to a select few , albeit that the Russians have tried unsuccessfully to influence the outcome . General Business : Peter Auld stressed the importance of always signing your Historic Rego Log book before venturing out in the MG , as he was stopped by the Plod , breath tested under protest ( never had alcohol in his life he says , apart from alter wine and Irish Moss cough syrup ) so take note . Thanks Peter for driving up from your leisure digs at Victor Harbor to return the cup . The conditional registration changes to the legislation on historic vehicles registration got a considerable airing from AC Pearson . com and others , it is too involved to be reported accurately here , information will be circulated to all but the serial pest , Joh Neilson who knows it all anyway ! Geraldine reported on the National meeting in April , Anthony requested support for judges to head up teams assessing MG ’ s at the concourse event , please help where you can , ( Peter Auld will not be judging the TF 1500 .) The april meeting will be at the clubrooms to meet interstate participants . The convoy MG ’ s , TC , s & the TD from Buckley ’ s was an event to behold , see website photo . Well , that ’ s all folks , Laurie has limited me to one page this month , so to finish a final quote borrowed from Macbeth . “ Fair is foul and foul is fair , TC ’ s thrive in the fog and the filthy air ”
