[Healeys] support our hobby

We attend a local all British car show, 3rd Sunday of September each year.
This show has been going for well over 20 years and is hosted by the
regional Toronto Triumph Club. Quantities of cars have usually ranged to
over 1000 cars.

However, two things have happened in recent years.
1. The TTC members are burning out, as this is a huge undertaking, with
Popular Car awards for each class and they have some 40 classes in all.
2. People are bringing their cars into the show field and filling the place
for just a few hours, not registering because they "aren't interested in
Popularity and won't win anything anyway". Though the event is 10 AM through
4 PM, these folks are leaving very early, often by 1 PM.

It's still a "must attend" show in this region for any British car
enthusiast, but the signs of crumbling are there.
