EAST ANGLIAN CLASSIC HISTORIC RALLY

On the night of 22^nd/23^rd of April 2006 beginning at 0030 hrs, something like 50 cars, all of the 1950s and 1960s vintage passed down The Street, Foxley at minute intervals as part of one of the many stages of a rally organized by Chelmsford Motor Club in aid of the East Anglian Air Ambulance. 

Notices of the event were put through the letter-boxes of all the inhabitants of The Street notifying everyone of the coming event.  

It is extremely doubtful whether there were too many spectators for this event at this hour: although your editor was told by one resident of The Street that she lay awake purposely to hear the cars pass, but fell asleep after hearing just three. Well it was late!

At going to press, the amount raised for the East Anglian Air Ambulance is not yet available. 

I’m sure we all wish they did very well.
