Once again over a 100 members and guests of the Surrey Vintage Vehicle
Society converged on Church Farm Home, for the annual SVVS Summer
Picnic, courtesy of Julie and Bozi Mohacek. Some arrived in graceful
'vintage' Rolls Royces, Bentleys, Aston Martins, Alvises, and in a
Vauxhall, Humber, MG, Traction Citroen, Morris and Austin. The 'classic'
brigade included many of the iconic British sports cars including
Jaguars; Triumph Spitfires, TRs and Stags; Morgans and MGs, as well as
foreign classics like Porsche, Mercedes Benz and rally Volvo. The 'go
faster brigade' came in some quite exotic machinery including Ferrari
Dino, Lotus Exige, and Lotus 211. A raucous bunch came in American 'roddy'
gas-guzzler, and the 'green and quiet brigade' came in a futuristic
electric BMW i8 and a Tesla P75. There was even a Reliant three wheeler
present.
All guests were welcomed with a glass of wine and a hot- dog
before settling down on the lawns around the farm pond to enjoy their
picnic lunches. After lunch a most baffling quiz was distributed which
had been set by Mrs Chairman Julie and fellow member, Tony Oakes. Two
sets of questions tested the participants' knowledge of cars and
transportation, and their powers of observation in Mohacek's lovely
garden. The prizewinners were each awarded a bottle of wine. The
proceeds from the donations to the Quiz raised £200 for St Mary's
Church next door.
Julie and Bozi must be thanked for working so hard to provide the
picturesque venue, Janet and Charles Moody must be thanked for spending
so much time serving the drinks, and Daniel and Claire Mohacek with two
barbecues must be thanked for churning out the hot dogs. A glorious day
was held by all in great company, in a superb setting, on a bright hot
and sunny day; - and who could ask for more.
