A dry April Club Night at the Star Inn at Liverton brought out 9 Triumphs and Greg’s Jag Special. Julian’s Bond, Vitesses of Graham and Bob, Steve C’s Stag, Steve’s W’s 2000, Spitfires of Dan and John L, Dave’s TR6 and Shane’s Dolomite. Not warm enough to be out in the garden, but we completely filled the pub with over 40 of us there. We were joined by many of the gang heading to Brittany in late May, with a briefing by Steve, whose brainchild this was. Then – a massively successful Drive It Day on 21 April. 20 Triumphs met at the House of Marbles at Bovey Tracey for a fabulous dry and sunny run over Dartmoor to the Village Hall at Postbridge. A Devon Cream Tea was provided for all of us by the Village Hall Committee – am I making you hungry? We were joined there by another 5 Triumphs from North Devon Area, and by Rob Northcott – our predecessor as AO. En route we passed Michael B with his Spitfire and he got a cheery weave from all. We had virtually everything Triumph related out on the drive – from Peter & Christa’s Herald Coupe to Tim & Jodee’s recently acquired TR7, through Spitfires, GT6s, small and big saloons, Stags and my 13/60 convertible. We would have had another Vitesse but Bob’s decided to spring a leak at home so he jumped in with organizer Jon. I even found time to do an insurance valuation for a member – remember all our Devon Area Organisers can do this for you.
