The NEC had three Ys present. Bernard's lovely YA, Keith Powell's marvelous YB (the first one YB0251)which he displayed in the'Barn Finds' section last March and has restored with a body off process in just a year. A lovely car.

My YT was on the Stewart Miller and Peter James Insurance Company Stand. They are the sponsors for the Y Register's Round Britain Relay, the 37 stage event that begins in London on the 3rd June and finishes in Abingdon on the 30th July. This event has been possible through the excellent support of the MG Octagon CC and is the brainchild of Julian Bosworth. Maggie Grafham is the organiser and you can find details of the stages and the riders and runners who have committed on the Y Register website (mgccyregister.co.uk).

Julian's aim was to bring an event to your locality and with the help of Graham Smith from the Octagon we are looking to involve local natters through which the route will pass. The offer of help from Richard Monk at the MG Owners Club is very much appreciated and it is hoped that we may be able to arrange a visit to their HQ in Cambridgeshire.

We are also working with Phil Beck from Peter James and may manage to get a presence at the Classic Car Weekend at the Shelsey Walsh Hill Climb venue over the 22nd and 23 rd July.

All great stuff in helping to raise the profile of the Y at 70!

Thanks
