64th MGRSE meet at The Halfway House will be held on Sunday 17th January 2016
Noon till late

Welcome to MG-ROVER-South East,we have been doing this event for around five years and have steadily built it into the biggest regular MG-Rover South East meet, there have been some changes of venue along the way, but at Brentwood it has worked best and continues to be the regular meet venue.

We meet up around the 3rd Sunday of the Month,but sometimes due to other popular events this is changed by a week either side.The Halfway House in Brentwood,has easy access from the M25/A127 to Southend, it has a large car park of which we use the back near the play area, serves meals and drinks and has all the facilities we could use. Also on site is a Little Chef restaurant and a Travelodge Hotel.

ABOUT THE MEET
We arrive as the designated time which is about Noon so that we can make a day of it and avoid the dark nights that we get in the winter months.
After looking at Members Cars we take a few pics and weather permiting we stay outside to greet anyone who has yet to arrive, were not hard to find as we all park together in the Venue Car Park.

The Administrators of the MGRSE are Alan Hodgson - Danny Fox, Matt Dickinson & Wayne Aylott

that I am indeed looking forward to also sir!

Will bring the Gold ConnSE so that you can check out the stereo. Have to delay seeing the V6 to another time. But since that now has my front and rear old HK speakers, I suspect you won't want it blighting the audio landscape there anyway ;)

I don't know what that is but why not :D;)

Just got back home in time to watch the rest of the Liverpool v ManU game .
It was a very good turn out on such a nippy day.
I'm sorry I didn't stay long but no one was partaking in lunch at the pub and my stomach was getting in need of refilling ;)

I would have joined you but I had been invited to Sunday lunch with some friends, yes I have a few.

Good meet though with 42 cars turning up. Nice to see you again.

I'll be in touch re the reversing camera.
