CHAIRMAN’S CHAT Hi all. It's a bit of a quiet time for the club this time of year, cars are tucked away in garages and still dark evenings keeping people by the fire side. Spring will soon be here however so start planing your calendar to get the best fun from your classic. Our runs and events calendar is starting to fill up, with club runs and lunches but also national events. Drive It day is on again in April. Celebrations for the 30th anniversary of the MGF are happening in July, Goodwood revival and of course our own Brunel run in September. There are also the usual favourites of MGs in the Park and Cotswold Caper as well as classic racing at Castle Combe, it's all to easy to get double booked. Happy Motoring. Andrew
SECRETARIES’ SLOT Hi all Wishing all of our Bristol members a belated Happy New Year. Thank you to all of those who attended the December club night, Andrew, Violet and Richard for the movie quiz, which was so much more tricky than the previous one. To those who helped set up and clear away after the event. Not to mention Mr Costco for the yummy eats. We raised a good amount on the raffle, all proceeds will go into our fundraising pot for Barton Camp. Unless our eyes deceive us, it does appear to be a little bit lighter in the evenings now, Violet and Richard have quite a few upcoming events already for this year, please ensure that you keep them advised of any that you wish to attend. We have once again been invited to Triggol's farm. We have decided to arrange this for Sunday 6 July, in place of our usual Bring Your MG to Club Night event. Many members enjoyed the picnic we had there last year and we hope for a larger turnout this year. It is a fabulous opportunity to view their extensive range of vintage vehicles, used both for weddings, TV and film. The National MG Owners Club have reinstated their club magazine competition, due to the short time frame, we have chosen to submit the one we felt best portrayed our club and events. We look forward to blowing the cobwebs off and enjoying some MG driving. Hélène and Pauline

Moss Bristol Tel: 0117 923 2523 Fax: 0117 942 8236 Email: bristol@moss-europe.co.uk Web: www.moss-europe.co.uk Our thanks go to Moss Bristol for advertising in our magazine and to Owen, Jim, Tony, George, Steve and Martin at Moss Bristol for all their help and support to our members.

Our thanks go to the following magazine sponsors:

Chris Leverett Classics (near Backwell) Tel: 07710 796841 Web: www.mgrepairs.co.uk Our thanks go to Chris Leverett Classics for advertising in our magazine and for advising members for many years.
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.
