Thanks Harry I used Hukes for my Tonneau on the TR5 and he did a great job. As you say he is constantly busy. I will try improving things as George and Jerry have suggested. Thanks everyone Mike

Thanks guys. I did fear it just needs to be replaced. It is probably 30+ years old, so has done well. Looks a real faff to remove the soft top to get a new panel sewn in, but still worth doing. Mike

The Perspex rear window in my DHC TR7V8 is going yellow. Can this be reversed or is it a case of getting a new piece sewn in? A shame if it has to be replaced as it is in brilliant condition, except for the yellowing. Thanks Mike

Paul (PXC), I have sent you a pm and will try and help you make contact. Mike

Just to update. All now sorted. It was a connector on the outer wall of the passengers footwell. It looked clean, but once pulled apart and reconnected, the indicator started working as it should. It has behaved itself for the last month, so great stuff. Thanks Rob & Dave, the problem was as you predicted. Mike

Thanks Joe I am hoping that problems with door rubbers are not something many people come across, so will get a new set and fit them. Robsport are quite local to me so a trip out to collect some will make a nice drive out…….in the dry. Mike

Had my TR7v8 for a year now and the current biblical rain has shown that a small leak (bigger lately) is coming from the door rubbers. Where is a reliable place to get replacements? Anyone else suffer similar problems and have a solution? Thanks in advance. Mike

Cambridge Aero Club got their Tiger Moth up in the afternoon, but the weather put paid to the wing walking Stearman and many other aircraft movements. Photos are going out to attendees. Here is one that looks familiar. It will be emailed when I get to it. Mike

The Redbourne MOT test centre has always been good for me. They ONLY do MOT’s, so have no added interest in failing a car to get additional work. You can book before going or just turn up. They have 2 lines doing tests and can accommodate many types of vehicle. I have taken a few moderns there, but never a Classic. A 10 year old Jazz should be no problem to them.

Pete, I hope you didn’t get too wet over the whole weekend. We have some great photos of the cars and will be emailing them out over the next 10 days. The early arrivals, like yourself don’t have the blue skies, but I hope you like the picture. I will email it to you shortly. oops having trouble with the image Please wait while image is uploading...

Thanks for your kind words Roger. We were a bit worried when we had a major cloudburst, just before things opened, but in the end it was a nice warm day. We had just over 300 cars pre pay and although some resorted to coming in their modern, we think there were around 250 Triumphs parked on the airfield in the end. We will get the photos taken of people arriving out asap. Thanks to everyone for coming. Mike

Only a few days now before we see the largest collection of Triumph cars meeting in the East of England this year. We now have 280 paid up entrants and this is increasing daily. Still a few hours left if you want to join in, but don’t delay. Thanks to all those who have already supported us and see you Sunday. Email for details trr.lvg@gmail.com YOU COLLECT YOUR PRE PAID MUSEUM ENTRY TICKETS FROM THE “MISSION CONTROL” GAZEBO AFTER YOU HAVE PARKED UP

Thanks for everyone’s promotion of this event. As one of the organisers (there are only 3 of us), I can answer the Q about pre payment. TRR, Lea Valley Group & local TSSC wanted to know if we would get any interest and also pre payment means we can plan better for how many will attend on the day. As already noted (thanks Harry & Pete), the £10 per car deal is cracking value and all of it goes to Shuttleworth to keep this fantastic venue running. We have seen some posts on Facebook suggesting doors open at 8am. They don’t. It is 10am start when the whole Shuttleworth venue ope

Thanks again Rob. I have had a play from the front and although there are wire joins there, all seem OK. I will have a look from the buzzer back when I can next get an hour or so to play. Mike
