National Drive Your Classic Car Day 2008
Sunday 20th April 2008 Gunby Hall
MGs were guided to Gunby Hall by the Lincolnshire Centre's new Banner Flag . . .
It all started on 'National Drive Your Classic Day 2007' when John & Sheila Laurence drove their 1970 MGB roadster to Gunby Hall to celebrate this special day in the Spring sunshine.
A year of planning was to follow, led by David Stonehouse and supported by a willing band of helpers. Ray & Claire Ayres, custodians of Gunby Hall, pulled out all the stops to make the preparations easy and the day run like clockwork.
