Our cover this issue features a rare Edwardian survivor belonging to Shane Houlihan. Our sightings of these Incorporating the 2014 IVVCC International motors are sadly becoming more infrequent due to a Gordon Bennett Rally programme W variety of reasons. One of the events that you will see such machines at is the RIAC Pioneer Run, where motors of one hundred years and older participate in this growing event. Another opportunity will present itself later when the IVVCC Brass Brigade Run will be held on Sept 20th & 21st 2014. See www.ivvcc.ie for details. Also happening soon is the International Gordon Bennett Rally and the rally programme is contained within this Journal. A special treat this year will be the 11 or so antique motors attending. If you have never witnessed the diverse collection of motors from the dawn of FRONT COVER: motoring history up until the end of 1930, I would suggest that Shane Houlihan’s 1906 Berliet Open Drive you pay a visit over the event.

The Annual General Meeting which was held on 27th April, attended by 90 members, was an amicable event. I am, yet again, honoured to have been unanimously re-elected by my fellow board members at a meeting prior to the AGM to be President for a second term and I appreciate their support and confidence in me to hold the chain of office for another year. As there were no additional nominations for the five board positions, the five board members offering themselves for re-election at the 51st AGM were returned to office. As the weather on 27th April was extremely good, I posed the question “should we consider holding our AGMs as part of our First Monday evenings, rather than ask people to give up a Sunday afternoon?” and the feedback I have received to date is definitely in favour of a change of day. We will revisit this for 2015 and consider some alternative suggestions. The RIAC Classic Car Show in the RDS in March was another very successful venture and we are very happy to be associated with this event. It was, yet again, an opportunity to meet with many of our affiliate clubs and to marvel at the excellent cars exhibited at the show. Great credit is due to the RIAC for undertaking this event and we can look forward to another spectacular show in 2016. Now that the eventing year is well underway, there are many opportunities to take part in runs and static shows in the coming months. The RIAC/IVVCC Picnic in the Marley Park is on Wednesday, 11th June and a special effort is being made this year to set a record for the most open topped cars in one place at one time! This is a very worthy event as the proceeds are designated for the Lauralynn Hospice Foundation. There is a very special event in Ballybrit in aid of the Help Emma Beat It fund on 28th-29th June and we would encourage as many of our members and affiliate members to take part in this event if at all possible. The Terenure Classic Car Show organised by the Irish Jaguar and Daimler Club is being held on Sunday 6th July and the IVVCC Powerscourt Picnic Event is on Sunday 17th August. Details of a very special IVVCC Brass Brigade event in Dungarvan on 21st-22nd September are available on the website and there is currently great interest in this event. Early entry for all these events is a great help to the organisers. I look forward to seeing many of our members out and about in our wonderful cars over the coming months. BERNADETTE WYER LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor, CAN I have an old photo (see right) of a village in Ireland which I am trying to date. I think it was taken about 1919 and can also be YOU HELP? seen online at https://www.flickr.com/photos/21729974@N08/4176951554/ There is a vintage car in the photo with the number plate reading 'D 1084'.

An Open Letter to All Members (Hi Tim I am going to ask you to put the following in the newsletter as a letter to the editor since I do not know how to thank the Austin 7 Club or the members other than by a few words of thanks. As you will read below I think the world of the club and the members as they are truly great people and keep the Austin 7 family going. Thank you - Brett Wilson) To All Austin 7 Club members, Over the last 11 years that we have been involved with the Austin Seven Register of QLD I have always said the Austin 7 Club is the best club that I have ever been in and over the last 2 years you all have shown me why that statement was true. After my ruptured disc and the 3 surgeries to fix it I had offer after offer to help with anything that we needed. I never did take up the offers as I was too proud and I did not want to put any one out in any way. Then one day I was told (not asked mind you but “told”) that the club members were coming to help tidy up around the yard and the shed and they were going to get in a skip and do everything that 1 Amanda and myself couldn’t.

FRANNY'S CANDIES “I roll the Kettledrum candy in my mouth.” Franny pictures herself chewing on Boston Fruit Slices and her jaw flexes automatically. “Chewy wedges taste lemon and lime and go BOOM-bah-BOOM when I bite into one.” She adds, “When I unwrap a second Kettledrum out of its tight parchment, I examine the sour and sugar-copper rind. They are better enjoyed in pairs. Tomás, why aren’t Kettledrum candies hard? Like Lifesavers or Butterscotches? When they clink against your teeth, they could sound like a snare or a top hat. I can hear a soft bass rumble a tympani symphony deep within me. I swear, the Kettledrums make my voice go baritone when I sing BOOM-bah-BOOM after eating one. It’s true: I’ve tried it!” Franny confesses this to me under her gummy-bear breath and I agree unconditionally the way a best friend must. We come here because most of her schoolmates do not make their way down the block to Doña Dolce.
