Excellent Ed!

Hey, been driving the Blue Mainie here in southern Maine since March 30th
(although we're in a spate of rainy weather now). Good time to tighten,
grease, change oil, etc.

Hi Fellows

Battery switch on, full choke, ignition switch on, three turns -  after
five months and six days my BJ8 fired up !   Twenty miles today, it
ran like a top. Spring temperatures here today were 16C. This start
for me is a record, the earliest I've had the Healey on the street was
April 12th.  The Morgan started after only two turns mind you its
some twenty four years younger then the BJ8.

Happy spring motoring to all!

Kind regards
