It was incredibly warm at yours yesterday afternoon Alasdair...

Oddly, as I journeyed north east from you it quite rapidly cooled off to the extent when I got home it was distinctly chilly...

Hope the exploding can did no lasting harm..

Not as bad as when I had a carton of milk rupture in a car I owned in Cyprus...

It never did loose the smell despite having all the carpets and seats out and really thoroughly cleaning them...

All is well Jim, zero on the carpets. As the whole top ruptured there was no "Spray & Spin" as all pressure released quickly unlike the more normal "pin hole effect" :)

It stayed warm here till about 8-ish and we have a fabulous morning today.

A perfect start to the day :D So cold here this morning I needed to pop the heating on for a bit! Lovely and sunny though...

Got this from The French Car Show people today, it seems like I will be embarrassing myself in public by flying the Retro Flag

I see it as helping the great uneducated, a bit like missionary work :)

Do we have any flyers Jim, or can you get some FCF business cards printed I can hand out ?...I really do not think the ACTIVA will get anywhere in the "competition" so hope it will attract new members for the forum.....FIRE up those C1/C2/3 forum pages Jim :)

No flyers or business cards Alasdair but you know, it would not be a bad idea to have some to hand out at rallies and the like..

I'm no artist and could never design a decent card... Maybe you could perhaps? If so that would be great.. I'd be happy to meet the costs for a stash of cards from forum funds...
