Firstly my apologies to Sam Collins for missing him out of the
results of the Swan Rally – he and Oliver North came a creditable 4th out
of the ten Novices – well done.
In preparation for the Spotted Dick & Custard Rally, Ralph Travers
and I helped our friends Bexley LCC with the results on their Anniversary
Stages at Longcross on the 30th June. We had a few crews out in the form
of Ian Turner co-driving for Duncan Waite, Mark Best and
Roy Rayner in a Peugeot 106 S16, Colin Billings co-driving
for Tim Seipel in a MGZR, Ian Gibson and Andy Gibson in the
trusty Suzuki. Ian Turner finished tenth overall followed by the Gibsons
in 21st (3rd in Class) and Mark and Roy in 28th. Colin Billings managed
yet again to destroy a driveshaft – it wasn’t his and he wasn’t driving
– that’s what I call talent. Nice to see you all out enjoying yourselves.
Talking of Longcross PLEEEEZZZZZZ don’t forget the 1st September
– it’s our go there and Chris Scudder will need as many of you as
he can get – it’ll be a good day out and it can’t rain – the sky must be
empty by now!

If you think I’ve got it wrong (I’ve only taken it from internet results and may have missed people) please don’t be shy – let me know.
On the personal note the Manta (the one remaining one – ex-Phili Holliday)
is (as I write) being changed from blue to bright yellow – who can remember
LOY15??
Next month I’ll report on at least the Drystone (I think Graham
Child and Kevin Ablitt are joining us too)
