MG Car Club of South Australia managed to rush in to sign the book in the TC block paid $5.00 but never picked out their numbers, on the other hand Moe Buckley threw in the money , took his two numbers and then returned at the end of the night to sign in, I SAy boys you are a hard act to follow. I SAy , I SAy ! Well, I have to fess up now and SAy that Don Walker has pulled the barn- yard, chicken coop find of the season in the back blocks of NSW to capture a fine relic , drophead SA Tourer and hauled it home to Goolwa, a feat only rivalled by Doc Dallwitz who “pulled” his TC from the fowl shed in the sand dunes at Largs Bay earlier this year. The Doc bought a case of Coke to clean up the chrome on the car, however Don Walker will be needing much more than that, but it is great to have another Pre- war MG SA in the club, congratulations Don, very well done I SAy . There is a great photo of his car on the website. Next meeting. July 6 at Kenny Fisher’s 16 Benjamin Street St Marys . Under cover event, rain or shine. After that : August 9 at Doc Dallwitz 18 Mc Go- wan Street Unley : Wednesday night event, NB September : Leigh Ritcher, October : Micklem’s, November : TBA, December: Goolwa Peter Auld In closing I would like to extend on be- half of all of us, our best wishes to Peter Auld for his coming surgery which is pretty invasive I believe , hoping that recovery is swift for him. That’s about it for this month’s report, those who have missed out on selection again can lodge a claim with the Produc- tivity Commission as far as I am con- cerned. See you at Kenny Fisher’s .
