I bought my first MG, a 1937 TA around 1970 It's been back in use for
the past 8 years or so. I was told about this group
by one of the members and thought it would be good to be part of it.
=== and - just to refresh memories, here is the message that I send all
new members:

SPECIAL FILES ON OUR WEBSITE
The "Special Files" and "Members"sections on our website are not accessible
to the public and can be accessed only by entering (use lower case)
user name: mg-tabc

I have discovered that sometimes one needs to delete the xxxx that
appears there and then type in the password "xpag" - and you might have to try it
a couple of times.
