Great news..Those of you that go to Brooklands will probably know two of the marshalls John & Jenny Rankin, Jenny has a Grey LE500 and it will be their first time out with us. They have entered yesterday.

Guys , hope you have a great time. I'm seriously hacked off I wont be joining you , especially as this WW1 theme is a firm favourite of mine. Family commitments mean I just cant squeeze this trip in.

One small consolation is that Angie and I will be returning to the area in June so we still get to enjoy Ypres and the surrounding area again .

We'll find a meeting place for Friday evening then John, Marina is on the case when she gets back from a long weekend with the MGCF.

Then there's a good chance we'll be wearing something similar so we can find each other through a common theme. Have a safe journey to Cambrai and back.

Will do John, I'll do a write up for FasTForward too.

Looking at the numbers of cars attending there will be quite a crowd of MG's there.

One thing you don't have to tell Adrian to do is take plenty of pictures

We would have loved to do this also but that weekend is the start of our annual holiday in the highlands I'm touring on the motorbike & Barbara is in the TF a bit of good planning if I say so myself

Fitted and tested my video camera mount so that will be on at different stages and my laptop is coming to download it, also bringing my camera so will be taking loads of pictures.

See you all in Belgium

I have been of quite a few Euro MG trips and always enjoyed them but ... this one will stand out for many years as right at the top of my list. The organisation was great, the other attendees were great and THE CREW could not have done any more to make us welcolme and make the event work.
