Eastern, Suffolk Area news
March area news
deputy notes writer Peter away on holiday (again) it reverted
to me to scribble a few notes, and it will be a few as I promptly
forgot as usual and i am writting this after deadline day hoping
Bernie has a few spare inches.
A good turn out, with a few Triumphs (3 I think it was) braving
a normal March night.
It is good to see that Chris has started his therapy for his
case of Triumph Hooveritus by producing the first of a year
long series of articles on the cars that he has been rebuilding.
Well it will be year long if he does one a month! They say
talking about a problem is a good start, and hopefully he will
do a lot of that over the coming months.
It was good that he didn't mention any of his "dealers" that
have been feeding his addiction, but suffice to say I may be
a bit guilty.
On another good note, well for my wife, I too have been talking
and it has resulted in the sale of one of my cars, only the
second Triumph I have ever sold. The Herald estate is off to
North Norfolk in the near future, along with a selection of parts.
It needed someone to look after it and do it justice, as despite
looking a bit tired, it was surprisingly solid, but living outside
was doing it no favours in the long term. So we welcome
Jacob to the Herlad club, as his Hooveritus infection is just
taking hold. We will have himn up to 10 soon if he hangs round
Russell, Chris and myself long enough.
Not so good news for my wife is that my Herald convertible
is on its way back from Norfolk soon after it's monumental
rebuild and respray, so the gap in the garage will be quickly
refilled.
My sister keeps nudging me to attend the classic car meet
on the quay in Colchester which meets each month, on a
Sunday morning, so if anyone fancies a trip, or already goes,
let me know.

In other news that I can remember, Brian is struggling with
fitting GT6 quarterlights to Lightning. We suspect he may
need to find some original GT6 window winder mechanisms
as adapting Spitfire ones isn't working.
See you all on first Tuesday in April.
Cheers
Colin
