Consolidated event list
The event list for 2016 is posted on Jowett.org here
This was compiled from entries in the Jan Jowetteer. Unfortunately reports from the following sections were not comprehensive.
Anglian, Scottish, Southern, South West. Some of the dates in the North East section calendar were missing and did not seem correct when checking on organisers' websites.
Note that Google Calendar facilities allow easy updating of this calendar by section secretaries......please save me the job!
I have sent invites to all section secretaries so they can update their section calendars themselves( or get someone else to do it) .
This calendar should help get more people along to events, particularly those who do not read the club magazine! This should help get new people interested in the club.

Technical work is still on-going with a section Jupiter ready to receive a set of
reconditioned window winders and a new gear change column. We plan to remove
the steering box for full reconditioning during this workload. Another section Javelin
is currently under restoration with all the welding completed and being prepared for
paint. I also know of a further two Javelins that are in the final preparations to be at
Peebles. Fantastic what a deadline can achieve!
