    I will run you past my one liner jokes at the exhibit Russ!
    Ho ho
    The leads on mine are a opaque blue probably replaced at some point but with the white covers.
    Regards

    hmmmmm..If you're gonna do your one-liners at the show I just realised I'm busy washing my hair that night (you'll get the immense subtlety of the joke when we meet !!)

    Assume that the wires on your car are blue to match your fingers as you live in the frigid north ?

    Ho ho....

    I wouldn't want to lead you astray in your search for leads on finding new leads but wire you not contacting some distributors of these who have the capacity to give you some key points about the proper color for them without adding any of their own personal color to their opinion?

    I am pretty certain that they will be responsive with proper ignition of their expertise and if the timing is right. They will not resist you with a condensed story nor will they shock you by trying to boot you out of their shop. On the contrary, they are very grounded people and most likely also will welcome the opportunity to plug their battery of other products. This would cap your search quickly.

    I had better switch off now as I am feeling a little discharged and I am definitely after top dead center.

    I'll be here until Friday. Tip your waiters and try the veal! Da dum dum!

    :D

    How do you know that I ever stopped from last night? ;)

    I don't know whether that is bad or good and I have been worried that it would go over like a lead balloon! ;)

    John excellent.
    I am positive this is one of the most electrifying quotes ive read or is it green or black but once ive got to the bottom earth of this it will blow the covers off the lost leads in my search. Och i give up yours is truly excellent good man. Everytime i look under my bonnet from now on I will have a wee smile and think of the fun and the idea of tartan covers!
    Regards

    Two cannibals eating a clown - one turned to the other and asked "does this taste funny to you?"

    No ?

    Oh well........
