[Nobbc] MGOC Sonoma Wine Country Tour

[Mark Darley]

Andy and others,

Turns out I have to attend a meeting tomorrow morning at the  
Inverness Yacht Club and will miss the ride.  A real shame...the new  
tires are on and making a huge difference.

I also need some help stowing my newly reconditioned side-curtains  
and soft top.  When stowed they make a real mess of the side-curtain  
pocket and do not seem to fit.  I suspect one of you soft top MGA  
owners has solved this problem.

Next time,
Mark
