G'day

That reminds me that DMH, Geoff Healey and Roger Menadue all used the
toilet at my place.

Any takers? Or perhaps I should put it on eBay?

Hi all,
This reminds me of the time they had Geoff Healey ride with me in my
freshly restored BN1. It was during the first day of the 1989 AHCA
Conclave we hosted in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Our publicity guy for the
Conclave had arranged for a group of us to drive from the hotel in
Niagara falls to Buffalo, N.Y. where we were to have a 10 minute spot on
Buffalo AM, a morning show done from their ABC Buffalo affiliate.
Anyway, it was about a 40 minute drive including expressway and city,
and border customs, etc. Geoff and I chatted along the way and he lit up
a couple of cigarettes during the duration of the drive, snapping open
my clean fresh ash tray and using as it was designed for.
Of course, I said nothing about this to Geoff, happy to be able to
chauffer him around in my car.
When we got back to the hotel and he went on his way, I parked the car
and proceeded to remove the cigarette butts and ashes, and clean out the
tray. 
Someone in a group of attendees wandering the parking lot asked who had
been using the ash tray in my car, and when I said it was Geoff, there
was an immediate scramble for those butts and ashes! I couldn't believe
it!
"You're not really going to throw those away are you?" I was asked.
Yes, I replied.
Jeez, can I have them????

One of those moments I'll never forget.

Actually if you go onto the Justbrits website, there are pictures of the
Conclave 1989 with Geoff both in my car and being interviewed that
morning in Buffalo. Gosh, I didn't even have any gray yet!
