It's currently 28 degrees in Finland.
The Baltic and Scandinavia is fabulously beautiful at all times of the year but in the long days of summer it's really something extra special.  I love it.

Beats Cleethorpes.

..a much maligned place that isn't nearly as bad as it sounds!
It's actually quite nice...

The preferred venue for holidays in the nicanary household is this select resort in Essex - Jaywick Sands ;D

Best of luck, PJ.

If my experience is anything to go by, the data is definitely in there SOMEWHERE!
Info is seldom completely lost - if in doubt it may be an idea to contact a specialist to root around.

Thank you...I'm looking at the bright side...I lost all the pics & info I collected since February...luckily I spent those months browsing thousands of magazines, where I took hundreds of pics...pics are gone but the magazines are still there...other pics came from AP and I should be able to get back to those days and start again to look for them.
I'm not thinking of what I definetly lost, there's no need for that.  :'(

I'm travelling abroad on business the whole of this week.
I'll look in occasionally but don't expect any answers!

I'm off to Retromobile in Paris shortly, so few or no replies from me for a few days.

If any other Auto Puzzlers are planning to visit Retromobile this week, let me know as it will be nice to meet you.

In Hong Kong for 10 days from tomorrow. Sadly likely to be few interesting cars there I think, but I'll keep an eagle eye out :)

I'm enormously envious of you, going to Retromobile. I've never been, but am going to try next year. Was it good and which cars/displays stood out for you?

Richard.

I will have a heavy workload from Friday 13th to the end of the weekend. I will try to check in at the end of each day but don't be surprised if questions aren't answered for a few days.

Don't forget - all my puzzles are taken from the internet. They CAN be solved!

Having just returned from a trip to New York, I will be disappearing again shortly for a few days, so slow answers from me again I'm afraid.

Hopefully whilst I away I will be visiting Techo Classica in Essen (on Thursday 16th), so if any fellow AutoPuzzlers are planning to be there, please let me know as it will be very nice to meet you.  Vielen Dank.

Over the last few months I was largely absent from AP. There were so many different projects going on, that it was impossible for me to focus on puzzling. It speaks volumes of the site's attractiveness that as soon as the pressure ebbed a teeeny bit, I immediately returned :). It is still a guilty pleasure, and don't expect too much from me.

But if you find a missing puzzle picture, which you can't locate, don't modify the topic, but send me a PM and we'll see what we can do.

Uh-oh. I've modified over a hundred in just the last week (replacing missing pics). I've almost completed the 2006 thread.

I will stop  :(

OP, it is up to you. You can either replace the pictures, or send me a bunch of links and we'll do it for you!
