The Atwell Wilson Motor Museum 17th Annual Classic Vehicle Show – Sunday 14th July 2019

The Atwell Wilson Motor Museum 17th Annual Classic Vehicle Show – Sunday 14th July 2019

This show was timed carefully so as not to clash with the Heddington and Stockley show.

The weather was kind to us and our club had a good turn out with Nick (with 3 cars!!), Len, Gerald, Siobhan, Jean, Dawn and myself (of course!!).

Our members were the first to by some of the 50/50 tickets which I sell each year.  When the first winner was drawn, I suspected it might be one of our club members and it was, so Nick was lucky that I was doing it!  He won £50.  I went round 3 or 4 times.

The raffle Mini draw took place and we had to phone the last 50/50 winner.  This year's prize was a lovely 1983 Almond Green Mini Mayfair sold to the museum by one of our members.  August was the 60th birthday of the launch of the mini.

Good use was made of the gazebo for chatting, eating and drinking.

Atwell Wilson Motor Museum Annual Road Run – Saturday 15th July 2019

Atwell Wilson Motor Museum Annual Road Run – Saturday 15th July 2019

I was there early making the salad for the BBQ as usual.

My companion for the treasure hunt drive took a while to get into the thinking behind the clues.  We went in Herby, my cabriolet.  We took so long that Pam rang from the museum to check we were ok!

People started arriving at 3.00pm and awaited eagerly for the 4.00pm set off of the first car.

Needless to say, unlike last year, I was not in the winning team and all the salad had gone!!!  I found the clues very hard.
