A number of our participants took full advantage of<br />

the balmy evening and enjoyed the pleasures of<br />

open top touring.<br />

The run was followed by an enjoyable and social<br />

dinner gathering at the Blue Mountain Hotel on the<br />

northern outskirts of Toowoomba.<br />

Participants: Rob & Narelle Fraser, Rob & Fern<br />

Callow, Allan & Deb Maskill, John & Marg Boland,<br />

Brian & June Phillips, Ben & Angie Cain, Gary &<br />

Janis Lawrence.<br />

It was great to a welcome new members Glen and<br />

Bev Hadfield. The Hadfields are the proud owners<br />

of a recently acquired red MGB Mk1 Roadster.<br />

We hope to see them at many more of our events.<br />

David Miles from Brisbane also joined us for the<br />

gathering.<br />

Following lunch, the Toowoomba group opted to<br />

travel via Clifton, Nobby and Greenmount for their<br />

return to home base.<br />

Lunch Run 10 February<br />

WOW!! – 26 people at the lunch today at the<br />

Leyburn Hotel.<br />

The Leyburn Hotel is always a popular venue for<br />

our members, even the flies like to join us.<br />

It was wonderful to see so many bright cheery<br />

faces return again for the trip to one of our<br />

favourite places, with a great mixture of Warwick<br />

and Toowoomba members.<br />

We have set the bar very high now so we hope we<br />

will have more great attendances at each of the<br />

runs .<br />
