Probably not - that was in the days before everything that was spoken, moved or written down was copyrighted, and lawyers did proper legal things instead of chasing ambulances or pursuing spurious claims for almost anything to raise a few quid (with apologies to proper lawyers everywhere).

Oops - nearly a rant then..................

Oh yes! Never heard so many things that resonate with me ;) Dunno about the 'Old' though, I thought it was a middle age thing, unless I'm 'Old' before my time.........

Has it got nothing to do then with the fact that Robbo has been secretly recovered by Green flag more times than any customer.
So SPS may have been the first!!

Thats mean.

My MG is 100% reliable, or has been up till now.

The chef has laid down the suit for Green Flag today. We are suing for poor colour co-ordination. Its red white and blue, not green and white.
