Yey! I'm back.....!

A huge thanks to Keith and Ferny for helping me get the blog back onto the Club Triumph website. It needed an amendment to the .htaccess file in my webspace.

Naff all progress with the car, but at least people will now be able to read about that lack of progress!!! I still don't even know what colour it is.

Next Sunday the Lincs TSSC are off to Donna Nook (nr Louth) to see the seals birthing etc - it's a day out - and if anyone else fancied joining us on the run please feel free to come along! I'll be in the Triumph Suzuki Swift (see below)!

Also, I have been asked to provide some piccies of BLU for the Lincs TSSC calendar. My Vitesse will soon be the envy of all (well, those with a Lincs TSSC calendar and an even worse car). I want to be "Miss February" - watch this space!!!

Feeling Blue

I've tried the both Sapphire and Delft blue on my boot. The D on the left is delft and the blue square on the right is sapphire...



The rain spots don't help, but it looks like my colour is a deeper shade than either of those! Damn!

Will try royal blue next before I give up and contemplate painting all of the car (it's only the bonnet and doors that I was hoping not to paint).

I've sent the car details to the TSSC Vitesse Register, so they may come back and let me know what colour the car was originally. Based on the fact that it's a MK2 Vitesse with Mk1 body panels it could have been anything originally!!!
