Presents - Peter Clayton - 25-12-2017
Ho,Ho,Ho,and a Merry Christmas to you all.
I'm off to the family gathering,
looking forward to dinner and pud'
looking forward to giving out presents,
and hoping that I've been quite good,
I don't expect manna from heaven,
but wishing that I get a quite a few,
some some bits that fit on the Seven ,
would make all of my wishes come true.
What Seven related parts would you like and what did you get??
Happy New Year.

I'm having such an exciting Christmas. I'm just in the process of memorising the Kings & Queens of England since the Norman conquest, and then I'm hoping to get out a bit more.

"The Immortal Austin Seven" by David Morgan is my best presy. Just started reading it.

That's because she was never crowned. Politics got in the way and she fell out of favour after just a week, and shortly afterwards the Duke of Northumberland's head fell off, and hers too some time later.

I've had a copy too,looks interesting.But it was beaten as a surprise by the St Christopher suppliers plate for St Peter port garage.
I would think they are quite rare as during the occupation of the Channel islands in WW2 the germans ordered a wholesale vehicle confiscation,the only cars left being hidden.
It was advertised on Ebay from Germany !
In the German occupation museum here there is the story and photo's of a local who was allowed to collect the waste food for his pigs using his tractor converted chummy.
