[Healeys] On The Beach - Ava Gardner in Healey

[keith taylor]

ON THE BEACH .....AAH....Read the book  The movie script was crap
( Ava & Healey excepted )
" The last world Grand Prix "  Nevill Shutes AVRO ANSON engine powering a
straight line special into oblivion has stayed with me "forever" probably
why II haven't grown up
This book leaves Biggles for dead.

If you do not read this book I will come over there and tear your bloody
head off

No commercial interest , Just a besotted teenager
