So as 2014's Summer draws to a close

2/9/2014

This summer will be remembered by many things, not least the less than brilliant weather, but as September is with us things have picked up, with a rise in the temperatures, being the most welcome.

This week we're donning our shorts and flip flops for the "Beach Bash" summer excursion to Meschers, to get some sand in our toes and escape our usual haunt for the September meeting, so cross your fingers that the weather's as predicted.

Our return sees us edging even closer to the "Circuit des Remparts" where 13 (unlucky for some) of our Members Cars take part in the Rallye, on Saturday 20th.  We're hoping that our Midget will make the start, but it's crossed fingers, due to me bowing to the glorious weather and stripping the head, in the garden on a workmate.  For some reason I used a pair of Radio Pliers (that don't have teeth on them,) and preceeded to remove the small wire clips that hold the collets on the valves.  All went well until "ping",  one made a break for freedom and ended up somewhere in the garden.    Suffice to say that days have gone by, the 20th looms even closer, the ordered parts from the UK have not arrived, but the company are sending a duplicate order and constantly, The Samaritans have been engaged............18 days to go.
