Pat I reckon that number plate would be worth a bob or two nowadays and computers were not thought of when that came out :wink: :laughing:
cheers Johnnie


Having mainly French work under my belt with the odd Italian trip & being a Mont Cenis virgin on May 1st 2011
We made a trip so hopefully so memories for oldies or should that be senoir drivers
I’ve got a few more but it was terribly slow doing these 2 maybe tomorrow

Jealous there Jez. Trouble is…the colour of “Victors” is a little suspect, if that was in Spain it would be a different kind of hostelry, wouldn’t it Charlie One, GAZ IOW, etc etc!

A dry Lake & steps going down
