There were 17 entries for this year’s Autumn Leaves Run and Scavenge. It is a growing event and combines a short country route through Sussex villages with a mildly competitive element in identifying photos handed out at the start.
Beginning at the Haskins Garden Centre near Felbridge the route wound through pretty countryside as the autumn leaves changed their colours. It finished at The Crown in Turners Hill where the answer sheets were handed in to club secretary, Austin Banner. He studiously marked them as the entrants enjoyed a pleasant Sunday lunch.
Finally, the results were announced and the overall winners were Paul and Heather Robins in their MGBGT with a magnificent 27 points. Runner-up was Claire Quinnie in the only non-MG (a Mini) and third was Chris Redhead in his MGB roadster – the latter positions decided by an on the spot tie break. The Wooden Spoon (or bag of Tagliatelle) went to Mick Breare for coming last with 13 points in his Y-Type!
