George....You know what my thoughts on them are, being sent to 'Coventry' for nothing, i knew when a certain collegue was asked to work overtime to allow me to get the day off, it was'nt going to happen, in fact he waited untill Friday afternoon before saying he 'could'nt work' the Sunday for me, however i won't forget though.

![]() Cracking day out yesterday....................nice to see everyone. Well done Tim on winning the award for best presented car, according to my sources it won by a long shot aswell & deservedly so (stripey mats), it is a real corker & a credit to you & it's previous owner
![]() Stu I dont know if you spotted me but I first caught you at Newtown just yon side of Brampton but lost you at Brampton as I decided to go & look at something. I then planted my brogues into the axminster & caught you again at Nent ![]() ![]() |

Did not see you at Newtown, but defo clocked you behind the white car and the wardrobe, as we were going past nent, the only bit of the journey I did not like was that cobbled road through alston (I think), otherwise a lovely leisurely drive back, had to keep the windows down to cool down the head and neck, and me and Ronnie had to stop for one of those breaks George mentioned at the meet, the comfort break as we called it, but George had a Scottish name for it Thoroughly enjoyed the day, but have suffered a little bit today with the after effects of the sun yesterday, but well worth it Stu |

![]() Hi.
How about this! Yesterday I did 207 miles, averaged 66.9 MPH and according to the IPK got 44.1 MPG. Refilling this morning I calculate the MPG at 44.7 (I calibrated the IPK last year) so my old 1.8 non turbo is nearly as good as a diesel, don’t forget on occasions I was up to 88mph indicated. Not bad for a car nearly 14 years old!
