So,  to summarise,  yes Cyril,  your factory engine was test run by Mazda,  and yes,  Cecilia,  they do leave a bit of water in the galleries,  and yes Clifton,  it does tend to leave some surface corrosion.. 
 
I think the old Leon is Back!  :)
 
G'Donya John,  (OZ for "good on you")
 
Mai oui,  mon ami!  I am back ... with a vengeance!  Watch out for more vintage "Leonisms", Ocker (Aussie) slang,  contentious opinions and gross political incorrectness!!  Speaking of which,  (and I know what Marv said -  but I can't help myself),  if you want some real Aussie humour by the Man himself,  look no futher than "King Billy Coke Bottle".
 
Ideal for passing away those monotonous hours on the road or in the air when there is nothing to do but drown out the noise of Mr Wankel's Wonderous Whirrler at full song.  But ya gunna hafta lurn tatork Strine.  (You are going to have to learn to talk Aussie slang).
 
As it says on the Sony blurb -

"Black Magic" is the 1st ever DVD release from King Billy Cokebottle. As expected this compilation is packed full of King Billy's latest jokes that are sure to cause offence to countless people and also provide a laugh or two!

Recorded in July 2003 @ The Dalrymple Hotel in Townsville and based around the comedy of the album of the same name, "Black Magic" offers almost an hour of laughs on this classic comedy DVD

So yes John,  the "Old Leon" is back,  the brain is functioning efficiently again,  even if the body is still a bit on the weak and feeble side,  and a few more (quite a few actually) grey hairs have metamorphosed from the dark auburn locks of my youth!   "Eminence Gris" is becoming a more fitting accolade/sautation every day!!  (}:>)
 
Anyhow*,  how's ya turbo going?
 
Cheers,
 
Leon
