Newsletter

The Group produces a newsletter, MAINBEAM approximately every 2 months. The content is provided by Group Members and covers a variety of fairly light hearted topics that are usually, but not necessarily, motoring related. The newsletter relies on its regular contributers to fill the pages, but we welcome contributions from anyone who has something to say and wants to share it with others.
