On the 3rd February 2013 hundreds of people took to the streets to mark the 50th Anniversary of an historical Welsh Language Protest in Aberystwyth.
Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru producted Y Bont (The Bridge) around the town re-enacting events. Yvette ( UML 237 ) was invited along with 4 other cars to participate and we were parked opposite the Post Office and really felt part of the production. Suzie Arnell.


The above four pictures depict "Sabrina", aka YB0686, driven by Mick & Jenny Bath. Another good day out for the motorcar at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre at East Kirkby, Lincs. This is a fascinating living memorial set up by Fred and Harold Panton in memory of their brother, Christopher, who was killed in action on a bombing raid in 1944. Christopher owned an MG and the Panton brothers have an annual award for the MG they would most like to own. The whole site is dedicated to the 55000+ aircrew that died in Bomber Command during WW2. As an ex bomber crew chief (Vulcan not Lancaster) Mick has an affinity to those brave lads who gave their all for liberty and freedom.

Sabrina was awarded ‘ MG Car of the Day’ by the Panton brothers and also First Prize in the separate MG Car Club pride of ownership show. Two awards on one day! The car behaved herself impeccably.
