VIS Just gone through MOT with no issues/advisories, my 16vt when only a few years old always failed with some issue or other.

Way back in about 1966/7/8 I was sitting in a Parisian bar with my then boss, a French (Corsican) impresario name of Jean Besnard when I looked round and said to him that I recognised that chaps face.

At which Jean looked up, got up from the table, rushed over to him yelling "Spencer" in a strong french accent. That's how I got to meet Spencer Davis.

I also got to interact with quite a number of swarthy skinned night club owners, all members of the Union Corse, the French equivalent of the Mafia.



16VT and X1/9 1500

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
I even unplugged my own.
