Usually is a decent turnout, though I have missed the last few sadly.

As for weather I've had a sunburnt neck after PoL and 2016 that was called off due to snow causing wet ground, so you never know.

Being there is the main thing, its a bonus to be in the allocated area.

Sorry to hear that two members had problems with their cars, POL was a first for me on several fronts , First visit to Longbridge, , first long run for my 75,and first time meeting most of you,
I've only had my 75 since September last year, and it the most comfortable car i have ever driven, after driving 183 miles, I didn't have any back pain, or discomfort, unlike some cars I have driven before.

Well I had a bit of bad luck at the start of the day, as we didn't arrive till 1130, and was told our section was full so parked up next to a line of MGs down on the bottom of the site.
Still an enjoyable day though, and Big Ron was running perfectly as he clocked up 425K miles on the way back.

I think I saw you arrive, having arrived about 20mins before. Saw the windscreen notice and took the photo.

Cheers - had the plate made up at the NEC a few years back when my car was on show but not getting noticed much as it was sandwiched between some fabulous looking cars.

well it was my tourers first pol. my car was easy to spot thanks to the accident damage on its passenger side. I was planning on having it repaired in time for pol but the bodyshop rang me last week to say they had 2 members of staff off with covid, so its hopefully its should be repaired next month.
but it was still a great day with so many like minded enthusiasts all keen to show there passion and love for all things MG/Rover.
