It is a traditional dish in the United Kingdom, especially South and Mid Wales and the English Midlands. Faggots originated as a traditional cheap food consumed by ordinary country people in Western England, particularly west Wiltshire and the West Midlands. Their popularity spread from there, especially to South Wales in the mid-nineteenth century, when many agricultural workers left the land to work in the rapidly expanding industry and mines of that area. Faggots are also known as "ducks" in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, and Lancashire, often as "savoury ducks". The first use of the term in print was in the Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser of Saturday 3 June 1843, a news report of a gluttonous man who ate twelve of them. The first use of the term in print, as cited in the Oxford English Dictionary, dates from 1851, in a piece by Henry Mayhew in which he describes a dish identical to the modern product with chopped liver and lights in an outer wrapper of caul. This was in London. The use of the word "faggot" has caused controversy due to its additional meaning as a pejorative term for a homosexual man in American English. In 2004, a radio commercial for the UK supermarket chain Somerfield, in which a man rejects his wife's suggested dinner saying "I've got nothing against faggots, I just don't fancy them" was found to have breached the Advertising and Sponsorship Code and was banned by the industry regulator Ofcom. In November 2013, it was reported that British Facebook users had been blocked temporarily for using the word, in its culinary sense, on the website. Facebook said that the word had been "misinterpreted." 5 The month in pictures! Not quite as impressive as Angie Haughton and Mike's drive up the Stelvio Pass with it's 45 hairpin bends and height of 2757 meters. However, rather closer to home, me & Amanda did follow Neil's TF up the Llanberis pass this afternoon. No hairpin bends and s total height of 335 meters.....still a great drive though! And then s very pleasant journey home down the A5.” Steve Brace on Facebook. To join us on Facebook search for westcheshireMGOC Photos by Steve Brace 6 My Cars Gone Viral I must say I got a bit of a surprise a few weeks ago when I opened up a couple of national MG Instagram and Facebook sites that I follow - only to see my own car staring back at me. It all started when Martin posted a picture of my car (he always manages to make it look good, so thanks for that Martin!). It appears that this photo was then picked up by Facebook's Classic MG Magazine under the headline 'A white 1966 MGB, with chrome wire wheels. Could this be perfection?' With over 300 'likes' and comments such as "certainly close to perfection" it was good to see and hear! The same photo then appeared on Instagram's 'classicmgcars', another national site in the MG world. This time it attracted over 600 'likes' and a few more encouraging compliments. Now whether all these 'likes' and comments would have been expressed, had they seen the car in the flesh rather than from Martin's nicely edited photo is debatable - especially bearing in mind my well advertised lack of car show prizes, but again they were good to hear. So not quite viral but definitely a good result all round. And in this digital age I now remind myself that it's not all about the prizes, it's also about the 'likes'..... 7 Meet the members! Name: Mike Haughton Age: 65 What MG(s) or classic(s) do you own? Currently an RV8 and an MGC GT How long have you had it/them?: RV8 4 years - MGC 35 years Have you had other MGs or classics before this one?: Pre our MG era - a Mk 2 Cortina Lotus - then a few B's and Midgets, a 1300, a Metro, 2 Maestros, 2 Montegos, modern TF, ZT 260 V8, ZT 1.8 Turbo, ZT-T 180 briefly, MG3, MG6 - think that's all... What made you decide on an MG? I was looking for a Lotus Elan back in 1980 (having sold the Cortina Lotus) but they were over £3,000 - and a 1973 MGB GT was only £1,200 - so no contest really! Have had at least 1 MG ever since! Also the MG clubs and social scene has helped us make many long terms friends over the years. Working or Retired?: I might be retired (if I keep my head down) after 40++ years in the life insurance business. After being in a rather senior position in a multinational company that closed down, I started as a self employed consultant in 2003, and never missed the corporate environment. Single or partnered? Very happily married to Angie since 1977. Hobbies, what floats your boat? Apart from MGs - Rock music; saw probably all the major rock bands in the late 60's and 70's - did a couple of festivals, and have met a fair few band members too, including a memorable curry with Rick Wakeman. Also rugby union - used to go to all the England 5 then 6 Nations matches - Dublin was always a great 'craic'. Bit of photography too. Any bucket list items? No real list as such - but we've just done the Stelvio Pass in the MGC, which would have been on the list if I had one! We have really enjoyed exploring parts of Europe the last few years with other MG friends, so will continue that. A Rugby Union World Cup Final would be nice. 8 Meet the members! Name: Angie Haughton Age: Yes What MG(s) or classic(s) do you own? 1971 MG Midget “Tigger” How long have you had it/them?: This time just a year, but owned it 35 years ago for a year or two, it was sold to a friend to make way for the MGC GT… Have you had other MGs or classics before this one?: Best see Mike’s answer – I think that’s the lot! My own first MG was a MG 1300, which I loved, but Mike didn’t, he thought it was like driving an armchair! I think it ended up in the scrapheap in the sky. What made you decide on an MG? like Mike said, we couldn’t afford a Lotus Elan, so got a MGB GT which was at the same garage. Working or Retired?: Working - employed in the mornings, then self- employed in the afternoon, all other time working for family, or MG clubs.

In their first year apprentices will earn £7,654 and exceptional candidates will have the chance to go to China and visit MG’s parent company, SAIC Motor, in their second year. SAIC is the eighth biggest car company in the world and sold more than 4 million cars last year. HR Manager, Louise Lane, said: “This is a really exciting opportunity for youngsters to join in what is the birth of the new MG. For the right candidates, this will be the start of a great career in the industry.” Applicants will need five GCSEs including Maths, English and a core science subject.

  • Euro NCAP Rounds Off a Busy Year with the Results of Ten More Vehicles
    Mgr Ladeuzeplein 10 3000 Leuven Belgium T: +32 (0)2 400 77 40 Email: [email protected] VAT: BE 0465 041 160 Press Release Golf, Puma and Juke join the ranks of top performers, MG surges while Opel Zafira Life tanks Euro NCAP rounds off a busy year with the results of ten more vehicles. Five stars were awarded to the Ford Puma, MG ZS EV, MG HS, Nissan Juke, VW Golf and Audi Q8. Three stars were handed out to the Aiways U5, the VW up! and its twins, the SEAT Mii and Škoda CITIGO. The VW Golf has been a benchmark of compact cars since its debut 45 years ago. Previous versions tested by Euro NCAP have rated well against the requirements at the time and the all-new eighth-generation Golf again has achieved the five full stars thanks to excellent crashworthiness and standard fit of number of assist systems. The Golf is also the first ever Volkswagen to make use of V2X connectivity (vehicle to vehicle, vehicle to infrastructure) to enable advance hazard warnings, an important new technology that will be soon be included in Euro NCAP’s rating. However, after the Sharan released last month, the Golf was the second successive VW tested by Euro NCAP to suffer a door opening in a side impact crash test. VW states that the Golf has been type-approved with a standard automatic door-locking function and believes this would prevent such door-opening in real-world accidents. Nevertheless, VW is looking into the root-cause of the door behaviour as it has not been seen in Golf tests before.
