Within 30 minutes we were aware that a fire had started at Pinery and was heading towards Mallala with strong north to north west winds. At about 2.20pm the power went off, and 10 minutes later the wind swung to a very strong westerly. We commented “the CFS is going to be busy”. Little did we know the devastation that was to occur, with the loss of life and property. There will be few members of the Gawler Veteran Vintage and Classic Vehicle Club who have not been impacted, either directly or through family and friends who have suffered loss in some way. Allan Tiller who lost his life at Pinery, was a lifelong associate of your editor, we played football together in Primary School when the Long Plains and Pinery schools combined to field a team once a year, and then we attended Balaklava High School together. Allan’s wife, Jenny was in the same class at Balaklava as myself. Janet Hughes , of Hamley Bridge, who sadly lost her life whilst returning home, was very active in the community, and had been preparing for the Christmas Street Party which this club participates in. The impact on those who live in the area of the fire will be tremendous, and ranges from total loss of homes, buildings, machinery, fences, stock, pets, crops and feed, to the loss of all pasture ground. The latter has been complete through the fire area, and farmers are now facing the challenge of finding feed for their remaining stock. For intensive agriculture such as pigs and chickens, this has been further compounded by damage to the Ridley Feed Mill at Woolsheds which has removed that source of feed stocks. The loss of pasture cover will give rise to soil drift across the area, and any strong winds will result in dust storms. This is unlikely to improve until seasonal rains arrive in April/May. At the time of writing, all the Christmas festivity preparation continues to be in full swing, and the Mallala, Two Wells, Freeling and Hamley Bridge Street parades are still on. Full details follow this report and you are urged to take your vehicles along to these parades as a sign of support and a “cheer up” to those communities which have been affected. A number of our me mbers have been directly impacted by the fires. Keith and Leonie Kluske at Woolsheds were fortunate to keep their home but lost 2 other houses on their property, including Leonie’s childhood home. As a result 2 tenants are now without a home. Keith’s club registered Wolseley and a Morris Minor were garaged at these premises and were lost. The Kluske family, in common with many other farmers also lost machinery in paddocks in the midst of harvesting. At the time of writing the situation for former members Bill and Margaret Johnson is unknown. Bill and Margaret have retired to Balaklava but their property (and Bill’s collection) is within 1 Km of the ignition point. Our President, Fred and Noeline Chapman’s property forms the southern boundary of the fire zone. They sustained minor damage but Fred received an eye injury whilst fighting the fire, necessitating medical treatment. Trevor Lowe is a brother to club member Glenys Sambell , and he has suffered total loss. Trevor is a well known supplier of pea straw to the district and beyond. Mike and Deb Williams’ daughter Belinda lives on the outskirts of Daveyston and lost a number of outbuildings but house is OK. Allan and Cynthia Kempster spent an anxious night as the rear boundary of property was affected, and they wanted to be sure that trees did not catch alight, but they have no property damage. Reports are that all is well with Graham Ferris , who lives on Barraba road near Mallala, although two near neighbours lost their homes. Bob Houston at Hamley Bridge advises that all is OK with them, although he spent time putting out spot fires on their property. Many historical properties, some up to 150 years old, were lost. These include the former Grace Plains, Barabba, and Pinkerton Plains Schools, the Murphy homestead at Murphys crossing, Gwenbank, and Woolsheds homestead (owned by Keith and Leonie Kluske). As a result of this devastating event, this Journal is a little late in getting to you.

  • Alan and Richard Jensen Produced Their First Car in 1928 When They
    Alan and Richard Jensen produced their first car in 1928 when they converted a five year old Austin 7 Chummy Saloon into a very stylish two seater with cycle guards, louvred bonnet and boat-tail. This was soon sold and replaced with another Austin 7. Then came a car produced on a Standard chassis followed by a series of specials based on the Wolseley Hornet, a popular sporting small car of the time. The early 1930s saw the brothers becoming joint managing directors of commercial coachbuilders W J Smith & Sons and within three years the name of the company was changed to Jensen Motors Limited. Soon bodywork conversions followed on readily available chassis from Morris, Singer, Standard and Wolseley. Jensen’s work did not go unnoticed as they received a commission from actor Clark Gable to produced a car on a US Ford V8 chassis. This stylish car led to an arrangement with Edsel Ford for the production of a range of sports cars using a Jensen designed chassis and powered by Ford V8 engines equipped with three speed Ford transmissions. Next came a series of sporting cars powered by the twin-ignition straight eight Nash engine or the Lincoln V12 unit. On the commercial side of the business Jensen’s were the leaders in the field of the design and construction of high-strength light alloys in commercial vehicles and produced a range of alloy bodied trucks and busses powered by either four-cylinder Ford engines, Ford V8s, or Perkins diesels. World War Two saw sports car production put aside and attentions were turned to more appropriate activities such as producing revolving tank gun turrets, explosives and converting the Sherman Tank for amphibious use in the D-Day invasion of Europe.

    n the micl-'50srhe UKwas undergoing a radical transfonnation as a tidal wave ofinfluence swept across the Atlantic.

  • January 2019 2019: the Year of the 3000
    January 2019 THE NEWSLETTER of the EASTERN CENTRE of the AUSTIN HEALEY CLUB 2019: The year of the 3000 http://new.ahc-eastern.co.uk/ ROB’S RAMBLINGS Well, that‟s it for another year! I must say that I am one of the daft souls that loves Christmas. It is a hangover from the working years when the Christmas break was a welcome and much-needed couple of weeks away from the hurly burly of the office. After the frantic excitement of family over the Christmas period however, watching an old film on telly with a glass of something is the next best thing to Heaven! I got my regular couple of books on Healeys and the DVD that Pete Taylor features in about Spridgets, not that I have had much time to read as we have had plumbing problems that await specialist attention – my efforts were unsuccessful. The downstairs loo spewed out effluent of varying degrees of unpleasantness and the macerator system upstairs was jammed by a foreign body as yet unidentified. Tidings of Joy! I enjoyed the Norfolk Christmas Noggin that I feature in the magazine, lots of local friends and a few from further afield that I hadn‟t met up with for a while. This was a great start to the festive season made all the better by Angela Bonner doing the driving! I hope to be at Barrington on New Year‟s Day, sadly Maggi and Roger Byford have had to cancel their planned get-together due to sickness but I am sure there will be many familiar faces to chat to on the Green.

My two years as your Chair is up. At times it’s taken a long time to get here, but somehow the two years seems to have flown by. Alan Inglis takes over as Chair on January 1, 2019, and I move into the Immediate Past-Chair position which will be vacated by John McDonald. So I will be following in the footsteps of past greats like the afore- mentioned John McDonald, and Gerry Parkinson, Fred Bennett, Bart Shaw and many others. My thanks to Bernie Miles for his work keeping track of our finances over the last 5 or so years. Also, my thanks for the help and support of the other members of our Executive Committee: Alan Inglis, Steve Hutchens, John Chap- man, Lorna Hoare, Alan Miles, Bart & Audrey Shaw and John McDonald. As mentioned above, Alan Inglis moves up to Chairman, Tom Popovich joins the Executive as Vice-Chair and Mal- colm Tait also joins the Executive as Treasurer. The balance of the Executive remains as this year. At the Branch Executive level, we have “tickled” the topic of how we can attract more members, especially younger people, keeping in mind that the average age of the current membership is, at a guess, around 60, so the term ‘younger’ doesn’t have to signify people in their 20s, but then it could! More work will be done in the future.
