I'll doubtless be at the NEC Classic too, so I will see you there.  I suspect Carnut may there as well, so we can have a mini-Autopuzzles seminar!

I intend to be there at some time, yes.
Probably Sunday.
Would be great to meet some fellow Puzzlers!

Slow or no answers from me until 20 October!
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

Hey - where'd everybody go?! ???

Undefinetly... :-\
I'll be here as usual almost each day, but with less time to spend.

Oh, that's too bad. I wish you best of luck with whatever occupies your time!

Paul Jaray

Grazie!
Nothing bad at all...many happy changes that will need my attention, but I will always have the time for this place.  ;)

I'll be offline until sunday

As from Monday 15th November I may not always be available to answer the replies to my puzzles.
I have to undergo hospital treatment every day until just before Christmas and may be a bit slow (except at weekends) to reply.
Anyway - normal service will be resumed as soon as possible!

I'll be traveling until Sunday. I intend to check AutoPuzzles regularly though

Take care of yourself, we are waiting for you!

Thank you for your kind thoughts - as you can see I'm still posting as normal for the moment and will continue to do so hopefully for a while yet.

I just have to undergo radiotherapy/chemotherapy for a few weeks and bingo! all will be okay again.
AutoPuzzles keeps me on the ball so to speak  - it keeps my brain focused!
As soon as I'm fit again I'm looking forward to competing in a few events with the cars next year.

I also have to tell you that another of our members who I met recently is also undergoing similar treatment and I hope that he is up and running and fully fit again soon.

My visits to the site will be few and sporadic, until Thursday.

There seems to be an epidemic of "slow answers" these days, so I' m sorry to add my voice to the choir.
My visits to Autopuzzles are going to be very scarce from now on. Well not really my visits - I still have a peek every day. But mostly my activity as a poster of puzzles.
I posted a message explaining this some times ago in the Editors section, but I think it's fair to let all fellow puzzlers now. In have no serious health troubles like woodinsight, although I had my share this year  (please get over this shit soon, Woody!). But I felt that I should still try to do something with my life and my work. And all this car research is probably consuming too much time and - mostly- excitement, and maybe I don't have enough for both.

So I have decided to give more of my time to the comics character I've created long ago (whose name, incredibly, is Ray B......) I have started a blog about him, hoping to get a magazine or publisher interested, and I have fun. More fun than I've had in years , except naturally while searching for such or such oddball car. The address, if anyone is interested, is this one:
http://lespenseesimprobablesderaybanana.blogspot.com/
Any visit from a fellow autopuzzler will please me very much.

I hat falses promises, and I won't promise to come back here very often. Although... if I think of a new and interesting group puzzle, you can be sure I won't wait to post it ( and will stay around awhile until you guys solve it.)
Best of luck to everyone, ant thanks to Charlie, Otto, Paul and all those who make this place invaluable

Ray B,
I understand how you feel - I'm already spending far too much time trying to find solutions (but I'm a relative newbie at the moment, that's my excuse!)
I for one will miss your contributions but will visit your blog from time to time - it is very amusing and well done.
Anyway, don't entirely forget us here - look in now and again and say hello.
Bon courage and best wishes for your future endeavours.

A real blow.

I'll check out the blog. Thx for all you have done here to shape the site. Invaluable.

Unfortunately I'm not of French tongue, so I can't share woodinsight's excitement...  :-\
I just noticed that your activities here decreased in the past weeks/months and I reckoned that you're going to make a break.
Sad that you're leaving!  :-[ I just starded to acquiesce your habits...
Just kidding!  ;D

However... lots of luck and may all your wishes come true.



Otto Puzzell

Time to learn French!  ;D

It's been great having you here, my friend. I will look forward to seeing you here from time to time, and will make it a point to drop by your blog.

Thanks for all the nice words, fellows.
I'll sure drop by once in a while (remember: almost prehistoric member Grobmotorix had almost vanished, now he is back and one of the most active ones).
