26th April 2009 - Drive It Day.

 

The weather for this run was perfect, with sunshine all day.  Seven Morris Minors, three Marinas, one Ital and an A40 left Tesco Supermarket in Norwich for a run in South Norfolk to Tricia and Jimmy's home at Langley for the first port of call.  The cars parked on their meadow and while looking around Tricia and Jimmy's collection of Morris' and Austin's members enjoyed some refreshments. 

 

Then it was on to Pam and Owen Smith's collection at Fritton near Great Yarmouth.  Here twenty-five of us enjoyed lunch while we looked around Pam and Owen's collection.  We held a raffle kindly sold by Jacky and her Mum.  Then we were on to the East Anglian Transport Museum at Carlton Colville to end the run and have a look around.  Already there were the Lowestoft Classic Vehicle Club, who were inside the Museum grounds and some more cars which had been on the Museum's Drive It Day run. 

 

Members were able to take a trip on a tram or trolleybus, which was driven by one of our members Sian Charlton.  We all had a great time at the Museum.  Bryan and Hilary Gostling had compiled the run and set some questions along the way.  These were answered correctly by Jacky and Brian Lloyd who won a goody bag for their car.  Thank you to everybody who worked so hard to make our run a success.
