The Upper Thames River Valley is a delight of small quaint villages and loads of history. Our one-day jaunt on Sunday 29 August took in just a few of its many gems, affording a pleasant country drive culminating in a convivial garden picnic at Nuffield Place.

Our first ‘live’ meeting of Register members and friends since 2019 was a happy, if cautious, get together with 15 Giulietta and Giulias parked in a corner of the large site of the former air force base that is now Bicester Heritage.

The beautiful late summer sunshine and a lull in the Covid 19 lock down rules drew a large and happy band of Alfa owners to Stonor Park in Henley-on-Thames on Saturday 19 September. The Giulietta Register joined the AROC gathering and were given a pitch close to the historic house, home to the Stonor family for over 850 years. Stonor Park is one of the oldest family homes still lived in today. It was a fine setting for a wonderful turnout of Register members Giuliettas and Giulias.
