Re: Christmas virtual pub meet

has to be worst new years weather for quite a while. Only 11 cars at the white buck, the minor/7 ratio was 1/4 instead of the usual 1 or 2/20+ :D

Re: New "Centenary" Noggin in Hampshire

a total of 11 morris people gathered last night for a good old chatter about lots of stuff, not just cars! It seems a good time was had and they all seem to be willing to do it all over again next month. I was the only old car driver with three other nogginers having cars under restoration, includin...

Re: UK driving license question

you won't need an address? just check who accepts what! We used an international driving permit in south america and we were just "on holiday" with no fixed address.

Re: spring pub meets

yes that's Mike. Re cliveden, too complicated for minor owners? I find that just a time and place with no itinerary of any kind seems to produce the best turnouts!

Re: spring pub meets

good turnout and nice to see some morrisses about! Sadly a number of the centenary noggin people were unable to make it but it was still jolly good fun with a good old chinwag! http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg97/Tobysears/RIMG0022_zps8f908303.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg97/Tobysear...

Re: relicensing without MOT

yes, it wouldn't be a problem for you as you had no MOT when you applied that was due to run out before the tax start date. Interesting you had a not licensed tax band, this is given when a reg. number is reclaimed so your car hasn't been legally on the road since it's number was reclaimed....
