Early Summer 2014


Its been a very busy few months at Muckers with a lots of summer events still to plan :)




The Summer began with a breakfast run to Sweet Tea Rooms where we enjoyed a run through the country lanes before refueling on a full english breakfast, toast or simply a few chips (clearly a very healthy lot!) Parked up in the carpark surrounded by cyclists and their bikes, we certainly added some colour and a gentle growl in the countryside.  A fabulous breakfast with lovely staff even if the weather was sadly a little grey.

Classics at Haselbury Mill, near Chard, Somerset was a fantastic day.  Organised as a charity event for Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA) it involves cars of all makes and models.  It was also the debut for Boris, Olly's Yellow mini which finally got a taste of being on the road.  A firm favourite of the gang, we arranged a cake sale to help the charity and were please to be able to donate around £100 to the organisation.  We also put a few pounds on ourselves : /   www.classicsatthemill.co.uk/ 



The sunshine arrived in time for a beautiful summer wedding where our minis helped a local couple celebrate their day.  Even the ties came out for the occasion.  Looking sharp boys!!  We had a fantastic day and the couple involved were thrilled with the turn out.



A few further trips included London To Brighton, and a VERY wet day at Castle Combe race track for the Retro day.  Although soggy, everyone had a fab time at Combe and nearly all the cars returned in working order ;)  A better day arrived for Steve, Jackie and Pete at Weymouth seafront the following day.

So now its all ready to plan for Mini Action Day in September, local car shows including Sherborne Castle and Thornfalcon, many more breakfast meets and most importantly, planning the Christmas Party!!!
