Fair BoLOC's,
Today, 3 years ago, 4 Lotus owners met in a car park then went on a run. We admired cars we talked the kind of quality banter that only Lotus owners know and we ate a good meal. A large group of traditions were born that day.

The BoLOC's grew from strength to strength, our antics got bigger and better and friendships were cemented.

Because this year has been a little slow, we have been busy with commitments that make the car possible, please let us enjoy this video of blokes (and ladies) cocking around in cars.

http://media.putfile.com/BoLOCs-Birthday-Vid

It is long, over 20 mins but there was so much footage, so much great stuff, it was difficult to make shorter.

Though the celebrations are muted and small this year, this is the quiet before the storm. This year the BoLOC's will rock.

Today please raise a glass of something rude to the BoLOCs and all they stand for. Remember "we are a run looking for a reason".

Happy Birthday

Having now watched the vid... Brilliant!

Who's that northern monkey commentating on the stripology? Sounds pissed.

The guy in the silver S2 in what looks like Wales at about 4 mins in, who the hell was that??

Classic Toxic at Brands. Sounds like he's trying to lure smurfs!! Had me in stitches.

Good effort Gooby

Well done BoLOCs

I noticed mate and greatly appreciated believe me. Watched it with Lou and it brought back a whole heap of emotions. Janitor Jnr will be watching it in a mo

The day I first met you, Just and Tipper down at The Holland in the company of Tony Shute seems a very long time ago now... it's actually two years and 10 days

I had a sneak preview on sunday of this and just watched the finished product. Gooby you are a God my man!!!! Thanks to all the other Bolocs for making the group something just a little special. 2008 has been a little slow to get going and due to work and weather!! So boys and girls this group is by you for you so get those runs you want to do organised.

Great, Great Vid......!!!!!
