Classic MG Car Natter - May 2009

May update - Day trip to Havant

It was a little too dark to photograph the cars at The Chequers for our meeting this month but we are hoping that June will be suitably well lit. The following pictures were taken from our day run to Havant. We started the day, meeting initially at the civic offices at Havant, at about 9.00am.Having a bacon roll, or a sticky bun, and a cup of coffee, before setting off at 10.30am (approx) On a 57 mile round trip, journeying through the beautiful countryside with scenic views through, New town, Droxford, Alresford, Hambledon village and finishing at Fort Purbrook.
