GFC778N
Tealer Ernest Neill was one of the very early members of the Teal Owners’ Club, and built his Teal (Blue Arrow) with son Roger’s help. Ernest has been a keen supporter of numerous Teal events, particularly around Uxbridge, but also including the epic Spider run, and is now quite a senior member, often driving to events with his son. The photo of Ernest below was taken some 20 years ago….

…as well as Ernest at the wheel on the Brooklands banking, among the Teals pictured are those of Norman Durban (RPAIL sometimes called April), Cliff Sedman, Neil Ramsay, Andy Dutton, Peter Fenn and Mike Birch (Type 59 with luggage rack) and an unknown with spat-type rear mudguards (anyone know whose?).

Andy Dutton has also sent this picture of Tealers at Brooklands on a different occasion in 1994, with Ernest at back right. But how many other Tealers can you spot and name? And who’s the good-looking young chap in the silver Teal front left?
