I thoroughly enjoyed the Centenary celebrations. On behalf of the Centre I would like to thank the Morgan Motor Company and their associates organising the events for a fantastic time. It certainly was a worthy way of celebrating one hundred years of our favourite car. Certainly, when the lovely Natasha Marsh announced she was beside herself with excitement, I can tell you I felt the same. If you are reading this report Natasha, you would be most welcome to join us at one of our noggins. I would be pleased to introduce you to the wonderful world of Morganeering. My

  At the Uxbridge auto show I had an immensely enjoyable time. The team had cleverly lined up all the Morgans in age order, from the earliest three wheeler through to a Centenary Plus 4, an Aeromax and my Centenary Lightweight. It made for an impressive display.

We will aim to arrive in time to watch the end of practice and see the parade laps of the Bentleys on the circuit before the racing starts. Demonstration laps are planned for the Bentley Exp Speed 8 Le Mans 2003 winning car. Contact: Crispin Elt This email address is being protected from spambots.

Chatting to Jerry Tanner recently he mentioned a notion "Bring a Morgan to a noggin." Now Jerry always brings his Plus Eight to noggins, so his record is exemplary. However, he does wear a warming beard. Nevertheless, you can't argue with his sentiments; we must all try harder and with the warmer months coming it should prove easier. We do have a busy month ahead of us. Don't forget that we have a day out with the Upper Thames Motor Yacht Club at their facilities near Sonning.
