It makes you wonder he's has done to that nice Mr. Putin.

Strikes me, John, that this is a classic example of "isn't it good that we're not all the same?".

OK, for what it's worth, I'd actually choose powder blue.

Hi All,
I don't know how all of you store your Nutella, but I've found a particular trick that works really well for me.
When you first get back home from shopping take the Nutella out of the bag, open the dustbin, drop the Nutella in the bin and close the lid. Then carry on and eat jam or marmalade in the usual way.
You're welcome,
Tim

That is a wonderful story. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, Stan.
I think that this is how, in their own way, all TRs should be used.

Hi Ronny,
Welcome to the Forum and (relatively recently) TR4 ownership!!! I hope you have had enough chances to enjoyt it over the past very strange year. I can't help you with your question for more history for your car, but I'm glad to have you here.
Best wishes from sunny (but still not very warm) Canada.

Bah. It's dark.

Happy Birthday, Tom!!!

Nice video, Deggers. Thanks.
No doubt Hannu was and will always be a legend.

For a view from further afield...
Here in Canada, my experience is that all "old car" people like all other "old car" people - even N American models. We always give each other a friendly wave on the road and stop and chat when possible.
We have the Toronto Triumph Club who are a great bunch of people (Chef Tush is a prominant member, for those who know his videos) but the biggest event that they organise is British Car Day. You can guess how many marques that covers.
Life would be dull if we all liked the same things - and I quite like that TRs are a bit rarer than MGs here (not to mention my Norton Atlas vs Triumph Bonnevilles).
It's a good plan and I hope it works well.

Hi Derek,
The problem, of course, with even quite regular covid tests is that, like an MOT, they are only proving that any given person does not have covid at the exact time of taking the test (and this assumes that testing is 100% accurate). That means that your person X could literally catch the virus walking out of the testing booth. Given that, my personal answers to your questions are:
1. Yes
2. No
3. As above!
My current circumstances mean that I've recently undertaken travel and have (and still have to) follow a lot of testing and quarantining procedures as a result. These are certainly a significant restriction of my liberty, but I will patiently follow them as I believe it is the responible thing to do. There's an argument that travelling at all is NOT the responsible thing to do, but my judgement is that mine is appropriate. However, as Graham says above, we all draw our own lines in different places and, after a great deal of thought and self-questioning, I chose mine.
Overall, I think this is a good and thoughtful debate. The rules are sweeping and apply to all, but are a bit non-specific which is what leads to the need for judgement calls...
Stay well, all,
Tim

I'm reasonably sure that Israel is a democracy (of sorts - like the rest of them).

Based on the evidence here, John, I think the answer is: whatever you like.

Hi John--Thanks for that, I have several vintage vehicles, do you know how I can post a list of them on my profile? thanks Barry
Hi Barry,
If you go to the top-right-hand corner of the screen, you should see your name. Click on the down arrow and choose "My Profile" from the options.
Once there, again on the right-hand-side, but not quite at the top you can see the option "Edit Profile". Click on that and it allows you to list cars owned as one of the spaces where you can enter information.
Let me know if this doesn't work and I'll organise some screen shots.
Cheers,
Tim
