MG Car Club of South Australia
PRE-WAR & T - REGISTER
From..John Bray
Register meeting 5 April 2018
The Garage Down Under,
Hawthorndene.
here was no gold rush this month to
the “down under” garage at the
home of David and Joy Pearson who
were just marvellous hosts to the Regis-
ter troop, but it could have been some-
thing else that attracted a very good
number into the lower level car barn with
lots of Anthony Pearson’s loot and good-
ies lying about. Opportune that he and
Wenona were away on holiday in India
at the time.
There has to be something magical in
sniffing around MG parts and memora-
bilia in members garages, it certainly
sets the scene for talking shop and gen-
eral business about nothing really.
Oil and grease on your hands accounts
for very little but a nuisance usually,
however the smell of it in the garage
creates an atmosphere akin to getting
high on gasoline, judging by the enthusi-
astic conversations that night where 43
signed in and 14 Register vehicles filled
the front driveways.
Ronnie Jellet, David Herbert, Tickford
Twins Peter & Don.
