I did notice it was raining as per bl**dy usual.

Still I had a chance to watch the mighty Spurs in action with my sons :)

Fingers crossed for the MOTs on Monday - I'm doing the entire 'fleet'!

Fully intend to be there, may be a bit later as I'm in London all day. I'll probably be in the Alfa as the Elans are progressively off the road prior to my time away. I'll have the LEC stand which Jim has kindly offered top take to Malvern.

:( :( Hello All, Sorry, we have to go to Harrogate for a couple of days so will be a "no show" once again. Would have been nice to see Stevie and everyone.

We will not be there in April either as we will be in California or Nevada :porn: :-D (he he) .

Have a good evening.

Good to see everybody last night - got home safely after taking it easy on the way home and being left in everybodys wake!

Checked this morning and the wierd thing is that I have no visable coolant loss. However the pressure in the system and the burst pipe a month ago is a concern. My block tester arrived last Monday and will hopefully give a definative answer when I finally pluck up the courage to use it!

Thanks Chris. Good to see every body last night particularly as the weather disrupted previous meets this year and it was nice to see some we haven't seen for a while. Hope the wet patch under your car isn't a sign of something serious Nick.

Hope to see you all at the Oct meet all being well.

pisser mate, I suspected as much as soon as you released the pressure on the header tank cap :cry: On the bright side you caught it before any damage was done. I know someone who can do HG's very well through recent experience if you need :-)

It was good to see everyone last night.

Good luck with the trip Nige,hopefully the laptop will work ok out there.

Sorry about the HGF Nick,when i did mine the head gaskets were on back order at Lotus,it might be worth getting an order together from Rock Auto's,make sure you get it skimmed before you put it back.

Chris,good luck tomorrow,let me know how the transformation goes.

Jim, as Chris said,sort that rear light out

Well we had an excellent turnout.

Nige
Tony*
Nick D*
Stevie
Tracy
Rob S

Even had a mini convoy going down the A31. The light problem must be intermittent :( , because it was fine when I got home..

Very best wishes for a safe tour for Nige and thanks very much for transferring the LEC stand etc. Please keep in touch.

Nick, hope you can get your car fixed without too much blood, sweat and tears.

Best wishes, too, to Stevie and Tracy for their impending nuptials - hope your work plans come to fruition, too. Thanks for the door lock - much appreciated.

Interesting to hear about Chris' VX project and that you are actually wielding a spanner and screwdriver ;)

Thankfully it didn't rain, snow or hail !!

Kitty ended up at £14.75

See some of you next time, hopefully.

Best Wishes
