Green Griff.
Driving along Didsbury Road towards Didsbury. (12.30 lunchtime). Then parked corner Kingsway/Queensway.
Seen there before.

Top off enjoying the sunshine.
I was Mrs Anonymous in the blue Peugeot.
Out for a quick purchase of a new pressure cap for my Griffy. (£9.51).

That would be andy43 and his 'Satan's sphincter' Griff, I do believe.

I'm sure you heard Andy's before you saw it Ding

Spoke to Alwyn yesterday and asked him to remove said finger and register on the forum - hopefully he does soon! Anyone seen his Griff around in Diders of late?

When is the net local convoy planned?

Cheers Ears

Hi Andy,

that's the one I saw.
I was racing to Smith Knight Fay for the new pressure cap for my red griff. (last one in stock!).

Have seen you round before, but always charging home or off somewhere serious and you have flashed past before I could get a chance to flash or wave + I am anonymous during the daytime in the blue Peugeot 206.

Will make the effort to shout next time I see you.
(I work in Didsbury). Please do not think I am a nutter if I nearly fall out of the car waving.

See you soon.
Ellie

...that's the trouble with TVRs - nutters spotting one and falling out of their cars
Your Griff only comes out under cover of darkness then
if you can shout over my exhaust I'll be amazed

Ask Jess.

I can shout loud if I need too!!!!!!
I find the ones who leap out into the road to get a better look a bit nerve racking.

My Griff will be out all day tomorrow and Saturday and of course checking the drive after the oil change on Sunday.
So not only under cover of darkness.

No

I am Red.

red in the face today as I have developed a leak of pressure and am having to take the car home under escort (planetdave to the rescue!). (New header tank on its way!).

Please would you clear all the roads between Wilmslow road and the Motorway at the Pyramid so I can do a straight run?

I know there is a Blue Chim in the environs of my workplace, don't know who that is either.

Sounds like Didsbury Road will be getting a bit steamy later on
Now I come to think of it, is yours the one with a fairly 'BIG' number plate - Ricardinho pointed it out to me at the TVRCC meet a couple of weeks ago - nice

well made it home no problem. Luckily I have now worked out that the problem is the new pressure cap, only bought a couple of days ago. (as the header tank would have cost £219! ).

Yes mine is the red 'BIG' griff. I was at the meet at the Stamford.

No doubt will see you around. If I sort the car before Tuesday see you then. If not may turn up in the daily.
