Once upon a time, Glyn and I were off out in the car when we saw a man* pushing a Morini 3½. We stopped to offer assistance but he said he'd only run out of petrol and was going to the garage down the road. Being only about a mile from home we suggested going there and, knowing my little Honda's tank was full, bringing some back in the tank. He refused and said it wasn't far to the garage.

Once upon another time, shortly after the previous one, Glyn and I were coming back in the car when we saw a man pushing a Morini 3½. We stopped to offer assistance and he gasped, "Yes please".

Hence my question.

*Turned out to be a member of our club.

A bit late back here because of extending our holiday, but I'd like to tell those who couldn't be there that they missed an excellent event. The venue was good; the runs out were good; the food was good. Although I didn't have any, I assume the beer was good because extra stock had to be brought in on Saturday, and the weather was glorious.

The autojumble stall was very popular on Sunday morning, especially with Glyn and Clive who appeared to have found some hen's teeth. Whoever said that men don't like shopping were wrong.

It was a pleasure meeting Vincent and Maxim again, together with the third member of the organising team, Bram, who was unable to go to the IJR this year. Of course I mustn't forget all the other people who worked hard to provide a great weekend for us. Roll on the next one. :)
