We hibernate (yawn!)

I'm sure people will return after the New Year.

Have a good one.

Good. I drive around,I see a fellow owner, I flash the lights, I give a cheery wave and all I get in return is a wall of grumpy faces. In consolation I think I will go on alfaowner to get some cheery banter and you all do seem to have hibernated. So if any of you see a particulary tasty red 159 on a 58 plate around Pompey and environs, c'est moi. Gimme a flash!!

I'm reluctant to wave because in he past people looked rather unsure why I was waving/flashing. And there must be so many owners that aren't on here but if you do see me around Newbury/Reading with a subtle sticker below my spoiler, then give me a flash.

A nice white GT followed me up the A34 this afternoon, going far too slowly IMO.

I always wave- but like you it can be a thankless exercise.

There are loads of threads about it...

Achillies Wheels??

I take it your alloys need some attention. I've used Wheelnice auto alloy wheel damage repairs and refinishing in Southampton & Bournemouth UK, contact phone, address and location maps. to get a bent alloy sorted.

Getting to A&M was interesting yesterday. With the bit of ice on the roads yesterday, caused chaos. Took me 1 hour to get there, for a drive that takes 10 minutes. Car is back, the wishbones were so shot Mike's phrase was "they were dangerous".

New boots Saturday, taking Mrs LR out for dinner Saturday night somewhere along the A32/A272
