Oh OK.
By the way you need to put "[/quote]" after the bit where you're quoting me above, or all you see is "[quote="Enright13"]"
It sort of works like Caps Lock if that helps.

Striking fear into the hearts of duplicate posts everywhere...!

I put the
blame squarely at the feet of this :
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Gremlin Graphics and Magnetic Fields !

Ok, thanks for the info.
I could change my last post and delete mikeydude from the list if it was just for owners, as IT IS MY CAR - Mikeydude is just my personal mechanic !!

I'm 35 at the mo but i will be 36 on the 21st April. I stuck mine on the younger section though as it makes me feel better.
Subsequently my birthday is on the same day as the Queens but the only throne i sit on is the one in my bathroom.

So Josler are we going to see some good results from RB this season now you've got AN on board?

Didn't he have a special Elise made for himself a few years ago. I don't think he's a great fan of the (heavier) Elan reading between the lines......?

Anyway, hope the team gets a good few points this year

Hi Steve
Hopefully we will see an improvement through the season. We have a strict policy at work now about discussing work related stuff on public places so i can't go into detail, sorry.
I'm not too sure about Adrians car collection but i know he races a GT40 in a race series.
Since being here he hasn't driven to work, he gets chauffeur driven every day.

If you're aged betweeen 36 and 40 then yes, nearly.
What you didn't do was take one off Dave's age range, because as we all know, he's not an OWNER is he!

She is (but not for much longer

)
anyway, don't care if I'm not the registered keeper..... i didn't see Angie under the wheel arch changing the suspension.... and she was missing when the head gasket went tits-up.....and when petrol has to go in it.
Okay, for the sake of peace, I'll agree it's hers

Dave
Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

I'm quite happy facing down armed robbers, or the odd mad murderer who's just shot 3 people and is holding a shotgun in my direction, but i ain't THAT brave

Jossler
he has an s1 elan (1965) and when I met him at LMC last year it was about half an hour before he stuffed the GT40 completely......
think the only bit that was salvagable was the chassis plate.....
he should have know to give up that day as he'd had more off road trips than a safari game keeper
