Realising what's important to you

[Kimbers]

Well, i finally have to admit it. My life revolves around LEF. My Photobucket account likewise revolves around LEF and as my wife regularly reminds me my internet life also revolves around LEF.

I am glad....nay, ecstatic to say that some of my best friends are on here!

I'm gonna put up some shots of what I mean and if you agree I urge you to put you're shots up as well.

I joined the site because Mike, Mel and Claudia met me at Castle Coombe and told me I needed to speak to some wierdo called Wayne who was the know it all of Lotus (and he still is lotus God!) and after that I have attended every LEF meet I could.

Castle Coombe 2005 with the old man.........

Factory Visit 2006, From

I got to meet Rob C from Canada (foreground)....to his left Dans ear, (Ian Mayes in Long Trousers!!!!), James (tentenths) and Steve L (The Timeshare twins), Yasuo (It's my birthday...announcement at 11pm and ensuring that we all stay up till 4am buying him a birthday drink!)...dunno (actually was that Porsche owner bloke)...me...and I think thats the back of MArtyn V...the original and best Captain Slow!

Stoneleigh 2006 and that fateful meeting with SyV that got us started with LEC....

All Hail the mighty Kimbergod Snr who got me in to meet JP and his entourage and ensured me perpetual hassle from the Brands Marketing boys!

That moment at Castle Coomb this year

Having you guys turn up at my 40th......

I forgot my camera on the Lotus factory event this year

Picking up MY OWN ESPRIT thanks to Bibs and Troy and with the help of James

But had it at the Piston heads meet

Thanks guys and gals for making my life so full of people who I enjoy spending time with and here's to a superb 2008!!

ARG! God how sickening.......In my defence I was on my second bottle of wine at that time!

And boy have I suffered for opening a 3rd bottle (and drinking it)......

So did I mention I've been ill?

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER open your heart in written form when you are pissed (even if you are a mod!!)

Its quite touching though!

[Tentenths]

Mucho vino last night per chance?!

And as for the two rather dubious looking characters in the last couple of pics... with friends like that who needs enemies?

Oh dear God. Where's the, er, bleurrrggghhhh........

[dodgy]

i can quite honestly say, without shaddow of a doubt, the my life would end due to being worthless without the forum, a Lotus, and my new found friends.

the nearest friend (best mate for nearly 30 years) lives 12 miles away and i dont get to see him very often now unfortunatly, he doesn't share the enthusiasm for the marque as i do.
