It's much safer to telephone Linzi rather than E-mail her. I E-mailed her first, then phoned to check and she hadn't received my e-mail. She's very helpful on the 'phone in any case.

Thanks for the relys guys. I'll ive Linzi a call and see what I can blag. With luck my elan will be on song again and with even more luck there will be some thing rather special about her ;o). Just got to work on the engine running without vast amounts of steam and the changing gear on demand details first :evil:

Booking isn't the issue, as you well know!

If we take my car, it's no problem to go 'on track' (but i may not have enough milage left on the insurance to take that one!).

If we take Angies (more likely), she doesn't want it on track (as it's hers, I can't really argue - who says I'm under the thumb :roll: )

Yeah, 15/05 was the date on mine - but with my admin being what it is, and as it was just payday, it seemed a good time to send a cheque.

Chris.t - I tried that one, but the policy I'm on doesn't allow for any increases (5K is the max with that underwriter)......

....it would have been plenty if Angies' hadn't been off the road for ages with a rusty door hinge - I was commuting in mine far more than intended :(


(anyone got a spare speedo - just in case mine ever breaks and needs replacing?????????)

Graham

You should have received a booking confirmation from "Travel Services Isle of Man". There's a tear off strip, at the bottom, for paying the balance. By the sound of it, the deadline for paying this balance is probably the 15th May for all of us.

If you didn't receive this, I think you need to ring Linzi, so that you don't miss out. :poke:

Bad news as well about your shed break-in. :evil: There really are some Low Life's about !

Good luck with both.

I'll give them a ring on Tuesday as I checked and they certainly took the £50 deposit. Oh well nothing is ever bleeding simple!!!

The shed break in wasn't a huge loss but it certainly was annoying, at least on the positive side its spurred me to pick some new tools up which made the job of stripping my turbo and exhaust off much easier.

Need to start making a few plans folks- those of you who havent sent me mob phone numbers please do so. [Chris please make sure yours is turned on]

The Constabulary have asked if we will put on a small show at Ramsey one day and am suggesting we do that late Sat afternoon [3.30 till 5] whilst there are peeps about and so we still have time to get changed and go for a curry.

I'd also like the list of attendees to be formalised now we have paid
