I have an MGA timing cover on my cubicle wall. See, I had stripped and
repainted it maroon, but decided to install an MGB cover, with its genuine
rubber oil seal, instead of the MGA one with its goofy felt. So I wound up
with this spare, beautiful, flawless, maroon timing cover....

I am looking at a 1/12 th scale model of my Europa TC. It is on top of my
monitor. Painted aproximatly the same color as my car. (The experience
convinced me that I have no future what ever painting things.)
The walls of my cubicle are covered with pictures of the Lotus, my
current Jag Mk 1. and the Mini Cooper I had in Australia. On the back wall
are pictures of Lotus Sevens taken in Jolly Old by a co-worker while he was
on "business" travel.
There is no mistake upon walking into my area that if you don't speak
"British Sports Car" (that's a new language, BSC. If you use the version
that has lots more features and goes very fast it is BSC++ (;-) you
probably won't be of much interest to me.
Question for you. Am I the only one with artifacts of my fixation in my
work place?
