Story


This year's Annual Boxing Day Pre 1976 Car & Bike Meet, the 15th, is dedicated to the memory of Stuart Thompson, a customer, friend & supporter of the event for many years, who died just recently from advanced Prostate Cancer. Stuart & his brother Adrian co-owned a magnificent Triumph TR4, that Adrian loved to work on whilst Stuart preferred just "driving & posing in it"! News of Stuart's death, via a kind email from his wife Linda this week, was quite a shock to me as Stuart had looked so well the last time I had seen him, whereas 2 years back during his treatment, he had collapsed in my shop & we had to call an ambulance. There's times when organising the event singlehandedly gets difficult & becomes all encompassing but news like this makes me more determined to continue to try & give people an enjoyable & free day out & at the same time try & raise as much money as possible, to help find a cure for this damn disease that keeps robbing us of such nice people as Stuart.                                                             

R.I.P Stuart.


"Romsey's Annual Boxing Day PRE 1976 Car & Bike Meet" most of you will know, is an annual event that I started in 2002, which now attracts some 6 - 700 plus cars and 200 plus motorbikes each Boxing Day. It's a free event but I collect for charity each year and we have raised monies for various charities over the years and have raised over £18,000 for Prostate Cancer UK (£3879.78 last year). This year's event will again be collecting for Prostate Cancer UK but for the benefit of those unable to visit, or those wishing to benefit from Gift Aid, I have set up this page for you to donate to this very deserving cause. Full details of the event can be found here -
