Just got it back from the valeters... One of the perks of my of my job is cut-price valets from the company that cleans our boats (they also valet cars).

The frog looks absolutely stunning in the sunshine... The gold fleck in the green paint really shows up... I'm welling up here!

Don't want to drive it now in case it gets dirty!

Roll on the weekend when I'm off up to Ipswich for the Spedeworth Speed Weekend (National Hot Rods World Final etc etc)... should be shooting through the Dartford Tunnel at about 9am... woohoo!

btw... anyone looked at that Renault Spotr Spider in Westovers?... was in there yesterday having a chat with Ben about Exiges (they don't do it in pink! grrrrrrrr) and had a good old poke round.... funky, but a bit rough round the edges.

right... i'm off sailing... It's the RLymYC summer regatta and I've just had my handicap tweaked in my favour! woohoooo!

That is all... carry on as you were

Funnily enough, just about to have a peek at the Renault Spider at Nutley Sports - we do their finance for them. Not really practical for me as it'd be an only car and I'd have to leave it outside, but cool nonetheless!

Yeah, i sat in it the other day, didn't feel that comfortable - that was my first reaction - love the doors though!

The other thing that struck me was that it looked like a welding showcase - plenty of it to look at & it was very boxy inside. Not the prettiest of cars, but I'm sure it's got other redeeming features.
