We passed a couple vehicles heading that way this afternoon, one being a very nice steam roller on a lowloader. _________________ Various Rootes Vehicles. |

Not sure I have heard about it? I recall the Avalon Run is normally in June, is this something in place of that or something new? _________________ Various Rootes Vehicles. |

the chap who helped organise it recently died so they thought about doing a memorial run & meet at glastonbury rugby club, on the bypass, from 4.30-7.30.
i had to email the chap, do you want the email address?
i dont think there will ever be another avalon run now. |

Do you know, we actually went on the first ever Avalon run. My parents were very good friends with the chap who has passed away and we did quite a few when it first started. But that's a long time ago now, back when I was a teenager!!
I'd like to know more if you could pass on the email address. We actually store our Hillman at a farm not far from tor Rugby club. _________________ Various Rootes Vehicles. |

No worries, thanks for that.
We know Alan, so might pop along for an hour.
I surprised we haven't seen any adverts for it round here? _________________ Various Rootes Vehicles. |
