No water at the Empress of Blanding’s forced the postponement of the club’s Annual Christmas Dinner in December, which was rearranged for 16th January. At the 9th January meeting Mark and Sarah of Solent Spectacles in Totton gave a presentation about the new types of night time driving spectacle lens. It was a real “eye opener” for the 15 attendees. is number was less due to darker evenings, as some members dislike driving in the winter dark with the glare of LED extra bright car lights. Hence, the excellent presentation was pertinent to A30/A35 club older members who nd the LED car lights blindingly unacceptable. Although the club is named Austin A30/ A35 Owners Club, most members do not have an A30 genre vehicle but just enjoy an evening chat with likeminded classic car bods. The club meet at Netley Marsh Community Hall, SO407GE on the 2nd Thursday of every month at 7.30pm, new members are very welcome to go along, take a mug for your tea or co ee! e Club also have a daytime catch up at a café on the 4th Thursday of the month.
