Unstone Green

This weekend sees the Annual Morgan Sports Car Club Awards Dinner, where various shiny* pots are handed out to those who have driven fastest, most carefully, or polished their cars the most. In previous years, when the diners sat down to the gala meal, the names of all the awardees have been printed on the menu cards: this year, the names have purposely been omitted, to add excitement to the occasion. Now, as Awards Officer, and the one who announces the winners, how long should the pause be between naming the trophy, and……………….announcing the lucky winner?

* shiny: you should see the state that some of the trophies have been returned to me.

It’s new, it’s hot and it’s here!

2010 February

And it is just for you, sshhh, don’t tell a soul! click gently, don’t wake anyone up.

But you might not have known it has been away! Sods law ruled: the big snows came, and the Landy’s MOT was due, and Sods Law again meant a failure! Sad smiley. Still, we sent it up to a guy on Callywhite Lane, who used up two angle grinders, half a dozen discs, a bottle of gas, acres of steel sheet and a load of swear words, plus a huge load of know-how, and the back end of the chassis where the springs bolt on to is now as good as new. Huzzah!

I write this on New year’s Eve, just before the wife and I journey to Glaston in Rutland to see the new year in.

A Very Happy 2010 to all my readers.

I wish all my readers a really Happy Christmas, and Prosperous New Year. For those of you who are bored, and I mean really bored, you could click here:

2009-december

Well go on then, what are you waiting for?

Permission has been given for us to hold a rally/public gathering at Cliffe
Park, Callywhite Lane, Dronfield – this Saturday, 7th November, starting at
11am.

As the final decision looms this may be one of our last opportunities to
display the overwhelming level of public opposition to plans for this
incinerator.

Please spare 30 minutes to join us and bring along as many family members,
children, work colleagues, friends, employees etc. as you can. You can also
bring your own banners. The aim is for the event to be a peaceful
demonstration, to remind our elected representatives of the volume of
concern.

A number of local councillors and the press have been invited.

Refreshments will be available from the cafe in the park.

Please come along and join us
