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

Pacific Blue.

Was out on the peddly last night, training for next year's London to Brighton (and other stuff) and there it was lurking in the Bishop's Stortford shadows, pleading for an evening drive out to meet some other Elans in the nearby countryside tonight.

Mr Rambo, on the A701 heading into Edinburgh (turning left into ?Frogstone Road?) on Saturday about 1pm. We were in the Subaru going to the Salisbury hotel for our weekend in Edinburgh for Maggie's birthday.
Looking good, and looking very red.

You sweet talking fellow. I'd come on over if I could find my bus pass. That was me en route from picking up my Elan in Dundee to Portishead, via sunny Tytherington for Elanscan interface. Top down most of the way. :D

Hi John - just spotted your spotted ;-) Yes it was me and I was having a run out from the Borders and heading for the roaring fire and a pint of IPA at The Stables bar at Mortonhall. If I had spotted you and Maggie I would have bought the birthday drinks :cheers:
