    Jum, Now your a knowlegeable chap, perhaps you can answer something that's been bothering me for years. Why did Colin Chapman number his cars in the way in which he did? I've owned a few of his cars over the years including a couple of Lotus 69's. Were these so named because they swapped ends without warning?

    I look forward to your reply.

    ps. Good crop of "you no what" this season. Will send you some or maybe drop it in when I'm coming past. Take care.

    Many thanks for clarifying this for me. Most interested to hear that sex on boats is a "no, no". I didn't know this and had I known the ships cat would have never been so lucky.

    Keep inhaling,

    Russ

    ps My friend Gareth Morgan, would like to meet you re. cats.
