Ensign, I'm not sure if you've heard my David Brown Astons story - I bought a pair from Chaters' stall at Silverstone at a GP one year (1986 I think) for the fabled £15. Proudly wandered round with it for the afternoon before discovering I'd lost my wallet including my return rail ticket.

I had to go cap in hand to Chaters to ask them to buy it back so that I could afford to travel home from the GP.

I managed to replace the books about 5 years ago, but it cost me £100 to do it, and they were from a smoker's household to boot. You can always tell... yellow tint to the tops of the pages...
