After the Hogsback Hike this was the first "ordinary" SEF meeting. There was a venue change away from the usual Plough to The Chequers at Walton on the Hill , a large rambling pub serving Youngs beer. 

The lunchtime gathering was pretty sparsely attended with only three Fs and a nice rust free Russett Brown B who was allowed to be an honorary F for the day !

Barry, Sue, Kev, Rob & Elaine & TimM found a table and enjoyed sunday lunch and a nice pint of Youngs whilst nattering about all things MG.

The day had warmed up a little when we left the pub to drive down to Cobham where we intended to meet up with some of the people who frequent www.themgzr.co.uk  website (Recommended if you have an interest in ZRs) .

 Two thirds of the F contingent went topless for the short run past Epsom Racecourse and through Esher to The Fairmile pub at Cobham.

Big exhausts and Bat ears seemed popular amongst the ZR crowd

When we arrived there were several of the hot hatches in evidence , many with modifications as can be seen in the pictures - the black ZR also had a moulded front bonnet making it look even more like a batmobile. Most ZR types were here if you looked hard enough including an Atomix and several highly tuned and modded beasts with X power logos to the fore.

TimM's F finds its way into the ZR lineup

There was a small spattering of rain so the F's hoods were quickly put back up again as we wandered around looking at the ZRs. We found this one with interesting logo on the front and chromed covers for several of the engine parts.

We had a short stay. Most of the ZR lot seemed eager to get out on the road and let us hear their exhaust pipes before heading off to the other side of the pub for a photo shoot. Some would be heading down to Guildford for the afternoon Cruise.

We went home.
