John, when I get it back, I need to enjoy the Talbot a bit before dispensing with it.

Thanks John, hot off the press, we have been offered a really good deal to sell all of Mike's cars at CCA auction on 12 December, which we have gone for to let everyone have a fair crack at the whip & to avoid complications with lockdown restrictions for viewing, so log on, register and get bidding!

I will post details as they are firmed up this week.

Order book now closed, we will print a few more than needed, so if anyone wants one best drop me a PM and I will get you on the list.

So thank you everyone who has ordered a copy or copies, I truly appreciate the support for the calendar, and I am sure Mike is also smiling, where ever he is.

Next worry for me is how it will be received, having taken all the credit, I must take the flak.

Cheers,

Bob.

Be careful of Frank - he becomes incensed if you make him angry.

It seems the Three Wise Men are journeying through our Forum. Probably following a STAR*.


*Is there a star called Baublejuice?.
