Mike Lugg, President of the MGCC T Register
It is with the deepest regret that we have to inform you of the death, following a short illness, of our T Register President, Mike Lugg.
There will be a private committal and a celebration of his life on 14th October at 13.30 at St Luke’s Church, Grayshott GU26 6LF.
Please let Sheila Lugg know if you are going to attend and has requested that as this is a celebration of Mike’s life, you do not wear black at the church. I am sure a good turnout of MGs would be welcome.
If you have any anecdotes or copies of his ‘odes’ we would love to hear them. Sheila is hoping to include some of these in the service so please let her know as soon as possible on the email address below

A T Type for a wedding in central London
The T Register has been asked if a member can provide a T Type to transport a bride to the church on her wedding day on Friday 9th September.
The bride’s father used to own a 1936 TA in Singapore to which she grew up with and why the classic MG would be the perfect and sentimental vehicle that delivers her to the church on the big day.
The car would be needed in central London. Pick up would be in Mayfair at 69 Brook Street and drop off at the St Augustine of Canterbury Church, 44 Onslow Square in South Kensington – in total about 25 minute drive.
Timing would be roughly be around 11:30am to arrive at the church for 12 noon.
