From Bill Sheehan:
Ruairidih - Well do I remember my wife and I arriving in the Bristol area and being met by a certain Blue Chummy complete with a trailer (which I presume is the same one you've been using for years?) for our luggage. Ian and I didn't do a lot of miles in it then, because we were busy putting the Pearl back together from a million pieces (four and a half days and it was MOT'd). But Jen and Ian certainly ran us round the area in it later. You were only 4 then, so probably don't recall it? Good to see the Young Folks at Home still vertical and smiling - and Happy Birthday Ian! Newcomers to the Forum would perhaps not know that Jenny also loaned me her Top Hat to camp with them at Beaullieu and they very kindly loaned the Pearl for us to tour the UK for a couple of months. And many years later you drove me around the West Country in your Ulster - what a family! And it's good to see you're keeping the family cars together. Best of Luck to All from a grateful Ozzie. Cheers, Bill
