CHAIRMAN’S CHAT Hello again. With the evenings drawing in, the summer classic car season is drawing to a close. Looking back over the year we have had many great events, even without the runs that were once a staple of club activities. Museum visits, lunches, car shows, croquet evenings and of course the Brunel Run. During this magazine’s preparation, many members are enjoying the Isle of Man so, while it's tempting to put the cars into hibernation, keep them on standby as there is always fun to be had. October Club Night is our AGM when the committee stand down for re-election. While we have many long standing committee members who have volunteered to stand again, and I thank them for their continued support, we have to bear in mind that this cannot be taken for granted. I know several have said "one more year" so please consider if you could help out and maybe buddy up with one of team and think about next year. The committee always welcome new blood. Andrew
SECRETARIES’ SLOT Hi All By the time you read this your committee for 2024/2025 will be in place and busy planning for the coming year. Please give them your support by stepping forward to help organise runs, lunches, days out, Club Night activities etc. It’s your Club and the committee won’t know what you want unless you tell them! We hope that our new venue at Mizzymead is a good choice and that you enjoy Club Nights there. Another Brunel Run has come and gone. We won’t thank people individually as we’re sure to forget someone! Enough to say a huge thank you to everyone who came, contributed, helped, ran around, cooked, washed up etc. at Brunel 2024. We were a little down on numbers but high in spirits and everyone seemed to have a good time undaunted by the showers. It was a pleasure to see Brian Griffiths, Yvonne Swinney and Bruce Gauld who came “just to visit” on Saturday. There are some pictures in this magazine plus a full selection on our website. Pauline and Hélène

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.
