Lovely to see the photos again Bob.

Thank you very much.

By the way...is MOG magazine still being published?

Cheers,

Mark

Mark, MOG magazine has been missing for a few months but Matti Rogers tells me that its relaunch is imminent....

Well, that is more than he tells me! Not a word despite all of my contributions over many years.

Mark, many thanks for your encouraging words, it is nice to know my efforts are appreciated. I do wonder will they be lost when I am gone to Parc Ferme. Would anyone want thousands of Morgan photos?

Bob, it is very disappointing that they are so casual, especially with you.

As you say, you have provided excellent articles and photos that they have benefitted from.

If I hear any more I will let you know.

I suspected as much Bob and Mary…

Would be a terrible shame to lose should a wonderful archive Bob.

How could we future proof it?

Cheers,
Mark

Hello Bob,

May I strongly suggest that you donate them to the MSCC Archive, I'm sure they will welcome them with open arms and they will then be preserved (sounds a bit pretentious) for all MSCC Members.

If you need a hand, please let me know.

Andy

I have just bought a 500gb hard drive, and am starting to separate the Morgans from the chaff, I suspect it will keep me busy over the winter months, as I have 1000's of images to go through. I am happy to donate the archive to any interested party (especially if the pay for the hard drive £28 :) .) No doubt many people will be able to identify the various drivers no longer competing, but I will put some thought into providing a list of cars/drivers. Any suggestions welcome. The archive dates back to 2006, so older pundits may be welcome.
Bob.

Given the green jacket says 2009 it is on or after that.
And the OK magazine is Sep 2009 featuring the marriage of Freddie Windsor which was of course was on 12 Sep (weren’t you there Bob ?)
So I would say late in Sep 2009 but cant seem to locate the old race results at present

2009 indeed, Leigh, the Birkett 24th. Oct 2009. Can you ID the assorted cars and drivers, some still active today?

Good to know you are still lurking here.

Bob

I think the pic of my car, when it was green, was my first race at Silverstone. Seems like an eternity ago!
