Talking of his exploits downunder Im sure he remembers this one. I certainly remember well this, one of John Cleland's trips to Bathurst (2004) where he put his car on the roof having tangled with a certain Mr Plato who was at the time limping around slowly having just damaged his car earlier in the lap.... I think John, in a gaggle of approaching cars was unsighted.
