        story there.

        August  British  car  day  at  Cars  &  Coffee   was  a  big  success  with  20  cars  in
        attendance.  I got there early this time and snagged a nice shady spot to set up
        camp  before  I  got  to  put  out  the  ceremonial  orange  soccer  cones.  It  was  a
        beautiful  morning  to  sit  around  and  chat  with  club  members  about  their
        magnificent Little British Cars.

        Big thanks to Cherie for hosting, and to  all who attended the August  27th  Club
        Drive  this  past  weekend.  Fifty-some  people  and  27  plus   cars  attended   the
        hour-long drive south of Thompson Station to the Old Delina Country Store. The
        quaint  old  country  store  did  well  to  accommodate  a  larger  crowd  than  was
        anticipated and provided a tasty lunch for all.  What better way is there  to relax
        and enjoy your friends and their  prized British automobiles than by attending a
        club drive?

        That?s all for now, folks. Stay safe, have fun and keep?em on the road.  Cheers,
        Todd                                                  4
