I'd only been in the drink about three minutes when Greg must have spotted my
FOT sticker on the windshield and quickly whisked me away to the nearest
petrol dump where I was able to add another red can to my collection.  I'm
sure Greg saved me from being de-nuded of my MG GOF driving cap and other
priceless motoring accessories.  Thanks again for the
rescue......................Cheers Henry  > To: fot at autox.team.net> From:
