I can see there will be tantrums and stamping of feet.

Its about 86 miles for me which is why I cannot always make it in time, but at least I do my best and I always come in the Elan- who needs viagra!!!!

See you all tonight.

Suggest- a ritual humiliation in the middle of the green for anyone not turning up in an Elan, those who walk might be let off.

I suggest burning at the village stake for those not in an elan, & jacket tates on the fire ! :twisted:

Think he's worried if he puts the roof up on his cheap S2, the bolts will fall out, like last time :wink:

I got drowned on my way home. The rain from Bury St Edmunds to Ipswich was torrential. Got a good soaking myself when juggling cars to get Mags in the garage.

MAKE SURE YOUR CAR IS IN GOOD FORM FOR THE 9TH JUNE!!!

Good banter between Mrs Spud and the Parsnips again :roll:

Nice to see some new faces - Raina, Rob and Sara. :D

Shame some of the old faces missing - Dico :cry: , .............

Good mix of Elan colours - one each of BRG, Black, Calypso, MG :gray: , NMY, Steel Blue.

Great gesture by the East Coast Scouse in exile as well :smt038

Actually, as it was suggested for once, we tried to find a more central location for us all, & Newmarket was suggested ,i have took the bull by the horns & contacted our messiah ( Gerald ), & it appears his sister-in- law owns a pub in Upware. Parking for 100 cars, good food & reasonably priced, & he would meet us there as well, so what do you all think ?. Apparantly he's gonna put a large lotus gathering together later in the year, with members from Club lotus, Classic lotus, Seloc & us if possible.

From what we heard last night Dave, your losing the battle to keep both elans ?, still if one has to go best its a pink one eh :!:

If this is gonna be a goer at Upware, we need to start talking dates ?, not sure if Gary's keen on this after travelling to work & back, but he might be able to do it when he works from home or something ?, think we ought to see if he can arrange something 1st, & try & work around that, sure he can sort something if he wants to :? , as for me & Rusty, we can fit in anytime really, cause we just work a bit harder & knock off bit earlier !
