#790 is Aqua (Martin R).

Sorry, I wondered why Medina Green looked less awful than I remember. Thought it was just the poor light.
No further data on #719, except of course that it is still a runner.

I also saw Steel Blue, H355 EKL. Don't know why I forgot that earlier.

Red SE. H-reg, London Road, Derby. 4pm.

First time I've seen another Elan while I've been in mine and it took me by surprise. I was waving like a bloody idiot and had a massive grin on my face but I got a flash back.

I've seen one a few times around Boulton Lane on my way to/from work.
It may have been H3**EKG but I'm not sure.

That must have been me lol. I convoyed along with 9 other Lotus's from the Lotus Drivers Club into Bath on the Easter Sunday and parked up at the Charlotte St car park and then on the Monday we had a stand at the Coleford Festival of Speed in the Forest of Dean.

Here are the photos:

At the last East Mids Meet they were winding Mrs Eds up saying that I only agreed to go to Bath for the weekend as they were all going there for an LEC meet.

As she saw you drive through the square she said " Tell me you're f**king joking!".

If I'd have seen all the other Lotus then I think I may have been in even deeper doos :cry:

From your pictures looks like you did all that we did and a lot of what I'd have preferred to be doing :lol:

hahaha lmao ... we all got a bit lost and seperated around Bath which was quite funny but we all got there in the end and spent the day drinking lots of coffee, eating and going on the open top buses lol.

Well, I've just been spotted by somebody.

I was in my Medina Green S2 ECZ **** and a bloke in a full car pulls up next to me at the junction at the bottom of Buttery Lane, Skegby. He said "I've got one of those in the garage at home and its coming out next week". Didn't have much time to say much else as we were holding traffic up at this point.

Was it anybody in here or a random stranger?

Not me - although I'd have probably said the same as he did !
