The 2012 Crossley Register UK rally, organised by Charles Donovan was based in Ludlow, Shropshire. Following a week of heavy rain and flooding we were lucky to have good weather for our annual weekend away.

On Saturday the navigation run took us through the Shropshire lanes, some very narrow, using Charles's engraved instructions. Lunch was at the Bell at Tillington. The traditional dinner and prize giving took place in the evening with a chance to compete in the fiendishly difficult post card competition. Did anybody win?

On Sunday, to celebrate the centenary of the Crossley Shelsley, we gathered at the Shelsley Walsh hill climb where veteran and vintage cars were competing on the hill.
