The Lincs. Gp is already committed on Sunday 28th June to support the local Dunholme Lodge Open Day, see details on website & Paddy Malone is the co-ordinator.
However I know a number of you receiving this e mail are particularly interested in Bert Hadley and / or hill climbs. Ref. Bert Hadley; this will be advertised via Shirley Tull. However of behalf of the above organisers I have been asked to contact members who I believe might be interested in displaying their Austins in the Austin Village. If chosen you will receive free admission for two persons for the whole weekend. Also, if camping this would be free & available from Monday to Monday. I shall be attending a further meeting in early December & will keep you informed. Meanwhile, if you wish to put yourself and your car forward please reply to this e mail.
There will be other car clubs there, some involved in the hill climb on a closed road nearby. The organisers are expecting a crowd of at least 30,000 people attending this event. There will be host of events on going throughout the weekend.

Thank you for organising the Sevens to the Sea today.
It was a real test of a round trip of 172 miles (Louth area to Hartsholme to Cleethorpes and back home) for our Austin 7 as it is the first organised run since full restoration. A couple of minor hiccups emerged, the indicators failed and so did the gearbox, but the driver had a socket set and a very large screwdriver, all that was needed was a little patience and a recall of how it all fitted together; he soon had us on our way although we were aware that everybody else was by now in front of us. A shortened lunch stop saw us back on track and we made it to Cleethorpes and its sea breeze by 3.45pm.
The instructions were well laid out and very easy to follow. Please thank all involved.
Kind regards
Dorothy Mansfield
