Club News On ursday 10th August, the group was entertained by club member Mick Bright and fellow musician Trevor Rice. e aim was to demonstrate the development of popular music from the 1950’s to the late 60’s. As a teenager in the 50’s, Mick was inspired by Lonnie Donnegan to form a ski e group called ‘Mick Bright and the Bright Boys’ (1956-57). In 1958, they won a talent competition in Winchester. In between his live music he played recordings that he had contributed to, including the rst song written by him in 1966. It was called ‘London Town’ and was recorded in 1967 at Pye Studios, Marble Arch. He shared his memories of playing at the ‘2ii’s’ co ee bar in the 1960’s, famous for groups such as the Shadows. e evening was rounded o with a classic from the Kinks, ‘Dedicated Follower of Fashion’. e evening was thoroughly enjoyed by club members. e club is always happy to welcome new members that are owners of any make of classic car, not forgetting those enthusiasts who appreciate them but don’t have one of their own, to come and meet the club members with a view to joining.

Do go along and meet them. ‘LIFE’S TOO SHORT – PUT SOME MILES ON IT’ Left to Right: Trevor Rice and Mick Bright (Club Member) Predictably perhaps, an odd number of New Forest Golf Club Seniors turned up to play on ursday 3rd August, in this four man Texas Scramble trophy competition, but Vice Captain Harry Maitland graciously stood aside to leave 44 players to compete on what turned out to be a ne day weather wise. All 11 teams scored well under par for the course with over half of them coming in below 60 so there may have been more than a few slightly disappointed faces when the winning scores were announced.
