I have just registered on this forum and thought it would be good to introduce ourselves. As you might have guessed already, my wife, Eleanor and I, live in North Lincolnshire. We are members of the Lincolnshire centre of the MGCC and we help to run the Swallow natter in this part of the county. Also, we are members of the Louth section of the MGOC where we act as informal events secretary for this (small) group. We are both 60+ and retired, therefore not too many excuses for getting out in our cars, grandchildren permitting.
I have a 1980 MGB GT and my wife has just bought an MGTF 85th Anniversary model (Intense Cassis, hence "Ribena"). Prior to the TF, she had an MX5 and it is quite remarkable the differences between the two cars. Although we liked the MX5 a lot, I have to say that - up to now - the TF is better! Not many miles on it at the moment but looking to change that as soon a the weather allows.
We are very fortunate to live in a beautiful part of the country and have easy access to some superb motoring roads - and Cadwell park.
Hopefully the bad weather will clear and we can get in some serious milage. We managed to attend the Lincs centre New years day run this year dispite the ice and threats of heavy snow.
Will be good to hear from like minded soles and hopefully meet up with some of you in the coming year
Ribena Rob
