CHAIRMAN’S CHAT Hi all. Seasons greetings. The temperatures really have dropped of late an no one could be blamed for hunkering down and staying in by the fire on these cold evenings, so it was a pleasant surprise to see so many at our November club night (we had to scout around for more chairs). We hope you enjoy the Christmas party and look forward to seeing you on the runs and events in new year. Don’t forget your classic in the garage could do with some love this time of year. Make sure the antifreeze if strong enough. Keep the battery charged and check the tyres are not going flat while it’s stood. It’s good to start it up and let it warm through as well. Modern petrol goes off quite quickly so adding some fresh fuel will help with this. If you do venture out don’t forget to wash off road salt and go careful on icy roads. Happy Motoring Andrew
SECRETARIES’ SLOT Hi All Firstly we would like to thank all of our members who arranged and / or supported events this past year, especially the Brunel Run. Please make a note of the date for next year’s Brunel Run on September 5th, which will finish at Barton Camp, with excellent facilities and lots of room for everyone to sit down and enjoy a cream tea together.. Following comments from many members your committee decided to look at possible alternative venues for our club nights. This decision was accelerated due to a request from Mizzymead to consider some changes to our meeting dates, which we decided was not convenient to our members. We contacted Nailsea and Backwell RFC, where we had previously met for several years prior to Covid. There have been major changes at N and B, they were delighted to accommodate us again starting with January club night (14th January). You will all understand that finding a venue that suits everybody is pretty impossible, but we did our best! We wish all of our members a very Happy Christmas and a healthy New Year. Hélène and Pauline

A plea for the magazine: It takes all of two minutes to stop and take a picture; how many of you now own a digital camera? How many of you own a computer? It would be lovely to feature some members cars being used as they should each month. It is so simple to email them, just say who its from and where it was taken, if you wish to write more we will be more than pleased. Email to MAGAZINE PHOTOS - thankyou.
The magazine is financed by both your membership fees and our advertisers. If you, or anyone you know, wishes to advertise in Fast Forward then here are the rates - full page £15, half page £10, quarter page £5. There are 6 issues a year so the maximum cost is £90. Copies go to all members plus copies are handed out at Moss, Chris Leverett Classics and at any shows we attend.
Thank you to everyone who sends in reports for the magazine. Word documents are great for words (as the name suggests) but make a poor job of photos. So, please include your photos into the Word document by all means but also email photos in separately so that the best can be made of them. Thank you - Pauline
CHANGES AT MOSS BRISTOL: Moss Europe Ltd decided recently that to continue to support the classic car community the only way forward was to have all of its stock holding held in one location. This decision follows almost all of the classic car parts suppliers and it is a trend seen across many industries worldwide with the growth of mail order and internet sales in recent times. Appreciating this is not ideal for those dedicated customers and friends who normally collect goods but the actions were taken to keep the supply of parts for many years to come. All the sales staff within the Bristol branch are still here, still working hard and still able to advise and support those needing that personal service. The shop is now closed but we can be contacted on 01179 232523 as before. The website improves day by day for those wanting to shop online but please feel free to support our local team by calling up. The Bristol team will continue to enjoy classic MG’s and there will be no escape from seeing us in the future as we will continue to support the community by way of many classic car shows and events into 2025.
