Hello from the Costa Del Sol
 
Hi All,

Just thought Id log on and say hello from sunny Spain.

Been in the UK for the last week visiting relatives in far north east, Stanley in county Durham. Took a couple of days and drove up to Glasgow and then accross to Edinborough for a flying tour of Scotland.

Arrived in Malaga this morning and booked into an apartment in Fuengirola right on the beach. Well be here for a week and take a few trips to different places, Gibraltar and maybe Moroco. Should get some relaxation in down by the pool and on the beach and then beack to the UK for a couple of days. Ill be heading back to sunny (not) Melbourne couple of weeks.

Hope everone is doing well.

Cheers

Hi Mike,
if you make it over to Mallorca, give me a call. Would be nice to meet a fellow ClubCobra member from the opposite side of the globe.

On the grape vine
 
Now folks, a quieter exhaust pipe than mine, told me ,

that Mike was born in warm old Spain, then moved to Kiwi Country and now resides in Oz.

This could explain why he's so mixed up.

Its Ok Mike come on home for a cuddle... :confused:

Cameron

Beijing - well what can I say other than I learnt to drive there..:LOL:

I can guarantee you that I did not carve my name in the stone at the top of the Great Wall. Unlike most I gave up at step 2050..**)

Enjoy your travelling - take care

I'm heading out to the States on the 16th so may pass in the terminal..:3DSMILE:

There he is laying on the beach whilst we freeze in Australia. Making it even more diificult is the fact that our cars are layed up in his workshop..:LOL:

I think we are paying him far to much..:3DSMILE:

Hope he gets sun burn..:MECOOL:

Bernie,

What's this about freezing!! Speak for yourself.

26 today, 26 yesterday and probably 26 tomorrow.

Bonham's on Sunday and guess what - forecast 26 again.

We have the best of the best up here you know!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers Bern - put the kettle on lad and fill that water bottle up.

BMK 06-07-2005 07:03 AM

Winter, what winter
 
PCC

Hi Peter

Just had two days of 19 - 21 here also. Damn it's winter. Yes does get cold over here during the night will need the water bottle for sure..

Passed a young guy in an early MG today and he looked like he was having a lot of fun - my Cobra is still over at McDonald Bros. Racing so thought it would have been good to have it back.

Anne and I have two young guys from Indiana with us at the moment and they cannot believe it's winter.

There is a 'Thread' on the Australian forum called 'Visitors', with some details on them...%/

Get some pictures of Bonhams if possible - think I'm on the right track - they are the collectors of fine Ford race cars etc...:confused:

Hi Stefan,

It would be nice to catch up but unfortunately I wont have time to get over your way.

Heading down to Gibraltar tomorrow and then on a boat accross to Tangier on Thursday. Another day on the beach and then its back to the UK.

Its nice being on holiday but I have to say I miss my family and my Workshop. Am I sick?

I managed to get a bit of a Cobra related fix in Malaysia. I picked up 2 pairs of Puma/SPARCO race driver boots (Same as the ones you bought Phil). Actually a pretty comfortable shoe to wear on the aeroplane.

An Indian Restuarant I went to in Scotland also had some very nice Indian Beer called Cobra. Heres a link: Cobra Beer

B.T.W. Thats enough talking about how many sleeps to the nationals.:mad:

Cheers

Brett

pneall 06-09-2005 05:13 PM

Hi Brett, Just a five minute stop. I am at work now. You back on the road yet.

I am going to Breakfast meet on the 19th , maybe see you there.

Phil:D

Shelby400 06-09-2005 06:44 PM

Dash is back in and looks the goods. Diff comes out this weekend to fit the new 3.9:1 ratio.
All going well I should have it back on the road next weekend.

Aussie Mike 06-10-2005 08:34 AM

Hi Phil,

Hope you have a productive long week end. I was quite impressed with Ians new machine when I saw it a few weeks back. Has he made much progress since then?

Got hammered last night at one of the Tapas bars and I think I made a fool of myself as usual.

Heading back to Gibraltar tomorrow for another look. Lazy day by the pool with a book today.

Cheers

Mando 06-11-2005 12:00 AM

Hi Phil,

has Ian changed things on the Cobra or is it another project?

Regards.
