A hearty welcome, Kirsty!!! The learning curve is very gentle and pleasant
here. . .just watch Ed. He might come out barking like a junk yard dog. But
his tail is wagging all the while he is barking so you know he won't really
bite. <G> And if you have no objection to using a cat as a wheel chock, you
are in. Seriously, this bunch gets dead serious when a lister is having a
problem and you can expect loads of support and information--even hard to
find parts by mail if you need them. On occasion a group of them will meet
and have a rally, or a group might load up and meet at a lister's house to
work on their Spridget. If you don't have a problem, expect to see a lot of
off-the-topic joviality passing through. But BE SURE to add "No LBC" to the
subject line for off-topic stuff to avoid the admonishment of the "pure"
among our listers.
Have fun! See Toby for a "Spridget" shirt and Gerald for a "Spridget"
sticker for your car and (perhaps) a Spridget key fob/luggage tag.
