If it hadn't been for a looooong string of hot bricks, the VC would have taken the Mountain in 1966, in almost factory trim. Nothing wrong with the Leaning Tower of Power either.

Not that I don’t like agriculture. School mates dad was an engineer at Tonsley Park. They all drove fast slants, if you call 85mph in second gear fast. One got airborne at 100mph over the train crossing on Brighton Road one night. Suddenly we all grew up…….
