received a letter from my grandmother last week. She is eighty-eight years
old and still drives her own car. She writes:

Dear Gavin,

The other day I went up to our local Christian  bookstore and saw a "honk if
you love Jesus" bumper sticker. I was feeling particularly sassy that day
because I had just come from a thrilling choir performance, followed by
thunderous prayer meeting. So I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.

Boy, I'm glad I did. What an uplifting experience that followed. I was
stopped at a red light at a busy junction, just lost in thought about the
Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the light had changed. It
is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd
never have noticed. I found that lots of people love Jesus!

Why, while I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy,
and then he leaned out of his window and screamed, "For the love of God!
Go!  Go! Go! Jesus Christ Go!"
What an exuberant Cheerleader he was for Jesus! Everyone started honking!

I just leaned out my window and I started waving and smiling at all those
loving people. I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!

There must have been a man from Margate back there because I heard him
yelling something about a "sunny beach".

I saw another guy waving in a funny way.. with only his middle finger stuck
up in the air. I asked your cousin George in the back seat what that meant.
He said it was probably a Zulu good luck sign or something.

Well, I've never met anyone from Zululand, so I leaned out the window and
gave him the good luck sign back. George burst out laughing... why, even he
was enjoying this religious experience! A couple of the people were so
caught up in the joy of the moment that they got out of their cars and
started walking towards me. I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I
attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed. So, I waved at
all my brothers and sisters grinning, and drove on through the junction.

I noticed I was the only car that got through the junction before the light
changed again and felt kind of sad that I had to leave them. After all the
love we had shared. So I slowed the car down, leaned out the window and gave
them all the Zulu good luck sign one last time as I drove away.
Praise the Lord for such wonders.

Love,  Grandma

Malcolm has the car and will advise on repair. He has not taken the p, as yet . He has been there himself and so has been very understanding, he is a trifle peed as he has help me get it to the state it was.
Race car is taking preference as testing is friday and race is sunday at Brands and I think it's a double header. So barring mishaps on sunday should be able to start on strip down next weekend.
