Hello Mark 
I thought I would send you this picture just in case you may  want to fill a gap in the next directory.It’s a 1961 Falcon 87 bought last year loosely assembled and not run for 8 years. As you can see it’s a mass of parts. I have just started to repair and replace parts and paint, with the hope I can have it ready for the long way up in May.  

Regards Ken Booth             

Can’t say I envy you Ken! I’m sure it will look great though.Ed

SOUTHERN SECTION

In 2007 we had a mixed year here on the south coast, Brian Boult having his Falcon 74 stolen was a body blow together with Sue Green’s long and painful recovery from her accident of 2006 meant that riding Fanny Bees was limited.
We attended two rallies overseas one in France and one in Luxembourg. We also took part in a number of local and national events with the BTSC and the VMCC.  Including the West Kent International in August.
I also rode 2000 miles on my 20 year old BMW doing the double end to end. This year we hope to repeat the end to end with the club but riding our Francis Barnetts.

Robert Hill

We shall have the exploits of the Southern Section in France and Luxembourg in the next issue, along with the great  photo’s Robert Hill has sent.
