There followed a navigational rally, a trial, a scenic run ending with ascents of Prescott hill, event a bicycle ride (can’t see the connection myself, but then I can’t ride one), with, as the grande finale, the Brooks Jubilee Ball. So the proud VSCC commemorated its 60th Birthday very commendably — and memorably, helped by too many sponsors for individual mention. If it has inspired you to join (and you do not have to have a vintage car) the Secretary is David Franklin, 121 Russell Road, Newbury, Berks RG 14 5JX (0635 44411). W B
