I think Josler will vouch for how hectic it was in the Lotus merchandise tent !

Anyhow I don't think they do them in your size :wink:

Unfortunately not due to starting new job on the Monday. Did follow the threats and the pics look very good esp as the weather was decent for once this summer.
I did show my car at the Stamford car show on Bank Hol weekend and it was the only Lotus there!
Hope to see a few more soon

You mean you showed him where the bonnet release is ? :lol:

Good to hear that you won. Shame that it clashed with the 60th though. Would have been good to see you there.

Well, to get the next meeting rolling, shall we suggest a Sunday lunchtime meet somewhere?

I'm not sure of locations of people here so don't want to sugegst a location although the Fox on the A605 near Thrapston has a good car park and I think is quite accessable. We had a meeting there ages ago where some PHers also attended and there were a couple of Ferrari trips.

Anyway, I'm in Kettering, Northants. Can others give loactions also?

Cheers!

Hells truth Stef, you sound more like Gary every time you post :shock: , although looking at your frequency of posting on this thread, ie May 27 & 28th,then 6 month holiday till Sept 18th :? , then another break till now, Oct 16th, so do i expect a reply in November :lol: .
In your long absences between posts during the last couple years, the EM meets moved away from your neck of the woods ( because no-one else lives there ), to accomodate people who wanted to meet, ie spud, rippers, joss, DaveT etc, & these peeps travelled a long way to meet up here, but as there only appears to be me who's willing to travel more than 10 miles ( when i can make it ),the meets have moved further south, they did accomodate your request for a meet up here earlier in the year, but you never came , so that knackered that !.

True I am not on LEC near as much as I used to be, and I don't do the meet organising either! :-D

So anyway, if we are looking at a weekend date, I shall try my best to make it.
