:? You have your own language in Rutland too?



Ah, I think what you are saying is people will assume 'you' are like me.
i.e. you have an extensive knowledge of the workings of the Elan, have a marvelous sense of humour, are relatively chilled out and can take as well as receive a bit of stick.

Nah Gary, i don't think they will think you are like me :twisted:

I guess I am a bit late with that one, but the topic on this thread always goes out of the window during the week before our meet.

Keep up Mr P - white smoke !

Actually I've been wondering. We haven't seen Mrs Eds at a meet for a while. Is this because the young Mr Parsons has upset her, or has Mr Eds buried her under the patio ?

She was at the meet when Jos was shat on by a pigeon :-D

Think that was in September, but it was more than 2 miles from your house Gary so you didn't make it :roll:

:(

Only hooned with Esprits once. I knew the rad could give way so was prepared. Once I smelled coolant, I checked my mirror and saw steam. I powered off immediately THEN stopped and watch the coolant gush out. The delay between me smelling coolant and stopping the engine must have been about 2 seconds at most. I would doubt that had caused a gasket failure but, if it is something else then it is a huge coincidence.

I was on the M10 at the time, which is about 45 minutes away. I got home on the back of an RAC transporter. That was the day before Stoneleigh, which why Dave gave me a lift there in Custard.

Although I have a commitment on Saturday to see a mate I shall try and make it over with JB for a bit.
