I'm not 89, and unlikely ever to be, mentally or otherwise.

You remember the days when I was up in Scotland Mark?

I was trying to think who was about then -

There was Graham from Strathaven with the Land Rover independent garage. Richard (quattrokid), a chap out Hamilton way into Audi 100/200 turbos, Derek with the 430bhp S2, a chap with a black Ur who I can’t remember his name, your good self. Good times.

Yes, a couple of times ISTR, isn’t it something like the highest village or highest pub or something in Scotland?

Most of the time I would fly up to Glasgow and hire a car, so had all sorts of stuff. The one that sticks in my mind was a Jetta. Great handling little car.

Something like that I think.

Hello Ian. I still have the old type 44 jalopies. Hope you're well!

P.S. the 430bhp S2 was just superb. Good times as you say.

Gave it the "halogen message" and . Driver looked a bit bemused !!

The numpty* probably pronounces it Ordi, anyway.




*that’s a technical term, unless you’re not an oatie, in which case it’s xenophobic and should never be used in polite company. So no problem here!

Hi Martin,

Lovely to hear from you and that you’re keeping the 1b touch burning We are all well here, our youngest nipper we brought up on one visit is in her last year of high school and the Border Collie we brought home from Graham is nearly 14-years old. The sands of time….

They really were special times for me, working 450 miles away from home for several months. I’m so, so grateful you lovely folks blessed me with your time. And I really mean that.
