In July, the M27 was shut due to a lorry arguing with the central barrier causing chaos to the club’s Beaulieu river trip. Club members taking 2 hours to travel from Eastleigh, and over 1.5 hours from Romsey to Buckler’s Hard. Some simply gave up. However, a er cooling down on the river, normal chatter was resumed. e club’s August evening meet was a quiz night entitled “Nostalgia Night”. e invite was opened to all partners. Teams of 2 were loosely organised resulting in a dead heat between the invited partners team and a club members team. e ursday morning meetup at the end of August saw the club vehicles heading out to Breamore House Tea Room. Not a problem usually but the heatwave ending brought rain and even a localised thunderstorm en-route early in the morning before travelling.
