Jane's replacement windshield seems to be letting in water down the driver's side pillar, so I'm taking it back up there tomorrow. I'm also going to get my Yokos put on my 16in wheels (no comments thank you Steve) so if anyone's around...

What time, I am working all night to do an upgrade in Shreveport. I should be done by 10am (hoping sooner).

Hiya LordWinslow.

Just an update on the bottle of Naughty Winslow that I emptied. Soaked the label off and inserted it in the empty bottle along with a print out of page one of MOT thread and MOT.Com homepage and a copy of the sticky. Sealed it and tossed it out in the Gulf Stream in the area of Oregon Inlet north of Hatteras.

If it shows up on your shores, refill and send it my way.

Cheers

Litter bug Max..!
LW, don't know what time I'll be there... I'm planning to go up around 9ish, if they need to take the screen out and glue it back again it takes a couple of hours. I was hoping someone could join me for lunch... Is there somewhere better than the so-so Indian place the group went to the other week..?

Now Steve, go easy on the fruity computer. After all, it's so much more intuitive to use. For example, after you copy a really important file to a floppy or cd, you get the disk out of the drive by dragging it TO THE TRASH! That makes sense.

A floppy...!!! What's one of those gramps..??
We Mac users have long been using USB solid state drives, which are automatically recognised the moment you plug them in, without needing to go to a support site to download drivers.

I'll be having luncheon on Martha's Vineyard tomorrow. Poo-poo on the rest of you! I'm getting on the 8:15 a.m. ferry out of Woods Hole. Stryker and I will visit and bid two jobs and then have lunch and motor about the island. I have room for two co-pilots if anyone dares show up at Woods Hole by 7:45 a.m.
Perhaps I'll have lunch here:

Remember Tuesdays with Morrie? Now, it's Tuesdays with Ian.

M wants me to trade in the SCAR-GO for an '05. Since the only mods I have are reversible, I am giving it some thought. Any out there?

JB, I cannot for the life of me remember the name of that BBQ place in Hadley, MA (between Amherst and N'hampton but it is very good and when this latest cardio-vascular incident passes, I'll get back to you.

Lawdy, Lawdy, the Cross I bear.

Why? The new lights look like sh-i-t. Oh no, is she pushing for a rag top?.....no, rag top is too good a word for that design. Cabrio fits it better.

I think the new lights will look good "in person" but I have not seen any yet.
There are '05 MINIs at the VPC but delivery to MOP (and presumably other dealerships) is stuck waiting for updated '05 federal paperwork.
There were zero MINIs (or cars of any kind) in the MOP shop today! About 5 new MINIs outside - all sold of course. There was 1 in the showroom. Most of the non-MINIs seem to have gone too. Hauled off to auction, or sold?

Should be free for a MOP meet tomorrow Gavin, etal(?).
There is a good Indian in Salem if that interests. Or a great Thai but all the way back into Gloucester - ask Diane about that one. Otherwise the traditional 99/Unos/Applebees/Bertuccis/etc around the two malls.
Oh - and the Hill Top Steak House but I hear that it is no good there these days?
