If you'll permit a presumptious observation...gleaned from a careful
review of your many messages to this list...
I'd bet that had you been around at the appropriate time, you'd have
been one of those "renegade groups"!!! I mean you do drive a
Spit....question is...would we have wanted you????
Reminds me of an interaction I once had with a customs agent at
Mildenhall...I mistakenly commented that I was having trouble with his
accent...to which he replied "Well, it's my English, after all, isn't
it?"
Cheers!

How dare he think that he can just do what he wants
with his own capital! :-)
Bloody hell fire, he'll be buying clothes for himself
and his family next rather than re-casting a concours quality
