got a pleasant surprise from the wife in the form of the Griffith story by Roger Shackleton.

i cannot recomend this book enough and it has been compulsive reading for the last 2 days

Thanks to everyone involved, no doubt its on a few of santas lists

A few of our cars are on the last page from the Griff Growl.
I agree it's a brilliant book and I'm proud to have my name (mock VIN Plate) and a picture of my car in it, albeit small and on the last page.

Mr Big has got a copy of this for his Christmas Pressie. Had the good fortune to meet Roger at the end of last month. Top bloke - very passionate about TVRs and the Griffith of course - and not at all boring in an anoracky way you would expect an expert like this to be.

He has put an awful lot of effort in producing this book and it shows.

Hey Phil, your post reminds me of an old pop record :

I know
that she knows
that I know
that she knows
that I know
that she knows i love her
Wish I could remember who the band was : anyone know

I fear it was the Bay City Rollers.
Scary thing is - why do I know that?

The Kursal Flyers, thanks guys. That will be a Sarfend group then, nothing like as good as Thin Lizzie tho.
