CHAIRMAN’S CHAT Hi all. October is our AGM month when the organising committee stands for reselection for another year. This year we were losing a couple of long standing committee members and there was some concern over how we were going to cover the roles. We'll I'm glad to say that the response from members has been most encouraging and nominations have been received to bring us almost back to full strength. So I'd like to say a big thank you to those we are losing for all their efforts over the years. Richard and Violet Delmas, Val Scott and Bert Hurditch have all gone above and beyond to help make the club the success it has been, and we shall miss their invaluable contributions. No spoilers for the new committee members here, they will be announced at club night, but we look forward to working with them and the new perspectives and energy they will no doubt bring. Happy motoring. Andrew
SECRETARIES’ SLOT Hi All Well, The Brunel Run 2025 has come and gone and pictures can be seen on our website. Sadly, there’s no photos of people socialising as we were all too busy to take any! So, a big thank you to all those who came. Approximately 90 people had a good day out with 75 of them treated to an excellent afternoon tea. Well done and thank you to the Brunel Tea Room "staff" and all the other BAMGOC members who helped. Planning is already underway for Brunel 2026. We had a good turn-out when Clevedon Cars & Coffee offered us a Club stand on Salthouse Fields in September – even the forecast stormy weather stayed away! A few members also attended the Yatton Vintage Rally. Events for our cars tend to dwindle at this time of year but, with such a blazing Summer now behind us, we can safely say that BAMGOC has had a busy year. A massive “thank you” to those committee members who are stepping down. Your contribution to BAMGOC is hugely appreciated and, despite new committee members stepping up, you will be missed.

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.
