Doug,
Let's see ... between Herman's leaky FF radiator and Scott's leaky Ford SD radiator, my TR should fit right in, as it always seems to leaking a little bit of one thing or another. In my case however, it's supposed to ... it's British!
I'll plan to follow you guys up there, so save me a spot.

Cool!
I'm going to try to make it to the Starbucks in Saratoga (across from the Union 76 Station on Big Basin Way) around 7:15 for a quick jolt of caffeine before we take off for Alice's at 7:30.

Great run to Alice's this morning!
Unfortunately, my day didn't end too well.
I started to hear some weird noises from the engine as I came back into Saratoga. At first, it sounded like an exhaust header manifold was leaking. Scott and I popped the hood and listened, but it doesn't sound too good. There's a definite knocking noise coming from right front bank of the motor.
I pulled the valve cover and there isn't anything visibly wrong that I can see. I also pulled the plugs and they look perfect. Next step is to do a compression test to see where I'm at.
Luckily, I ended up getting a great AAA tow truck driver who knew what he was doing.

Sorry to hear that Doug. You could have driven 1 mile to my house now that I have a space empty.
Good luck, at least it didn't happen at the beginning of the season.

Hey Guys,
Great Breakfast - fun to swap stories...
Ditto on the great run. It's been many years since I drove south 35 and then 9 into Saratoga, then Los Gatos. I really enjoyed it.
Doug, what a drag! I hope it's something simple and easy to fix.
Regards,
Randy...

Thanks guys. The good news is that the motor is still under warranty.

Doug, that's bummer. I hate when things like that happen. As Dave said, at least it's the start of Winter, although the weather has been great. I hope that puppy is back on the road real soon.

Doug, really sorry to hear about the car. Hope it doesn't take long to get fixed. Glad I could finally put some faces to some of the people on the forum.
Really a great bunch of guys. Hope to get together again soon.
Doug, next time if you are in Saratoga with a problem, just give me a call, I have a lift in the garage if you need to see under the car.
Keep us posted on the outcome.

Doug,
Sorry to hear about the engine issue. I hope it isn't anything serious. Be sure to let us know how things turn out.
I had the pleasure of trying to fish my wife's cell phone from underneath the passenger seat when we returned home. 
It was nice visiting with everyone.
