15th July 2007 - Norfolk and Suffolk Branch Rally.

 

We had a slightly better turn out at this years rally with fourteen Morris Minors and one mini in attendance.  We did have eighteen booked in but some didn't turn up, may be due to the bad weather forecast.  This year we joined the Lowestoft Classic Vehicle Club at the Maltings Meadow, Ditchingham at their annual event.  Throughout the day there was a steady stream of cars coming on to the field.

 

The weather wasn't too bad for us except for a downpour at 2-30pm which sent everybody running for cover.  Including our gazebo!  But we waited for the shower to clear out and we were then treated to some sunshine.  So we got away lightly with the weather. 

 

We had a good variety of Morris Minors on display despite the low numbers.  We asked two members from the Broadland MG Owners Club on the stand next door to judge our cars.  They chose as Best In Show Henry Coopers Series MM saloon BDX 407.  Henry also won the longest distance with 90 miles travelled from Essex.  The shortest distance was jointly won by Tricia and Jimmy Loades with 6 miles travelled from Langley.  So well done to them
