By no means am I king of the road and by infinitely less the queen of the road!!

Still I am looking forwards to getting my car back!

The scene is a pro/am golf tournament at the old Copt Hill course near Birmingham. We had provided an Interceptor as the prize for a hole-in-one at the short hole, and there was one on display in the main marquee.
Several visitors from the Jensen dealer network came along, notably the Welsh contingent from Cwmbran, always a great crowd to be with. We were enjoying a pint or two in the bar and gazing in admiration at the extraordinarily good looking brunette behind the bar. Time came to leave as the bar closed and we walked through into the marquee where the Interceptor was displayed and we stood at the back of a small crowd admiring the car. Suddenly we realised that the aforesaid brunette was standing just in front of us with her colleague. At that moment we heard her say 'Anybody who can give me a ride in one of those can have me!'. At once several Welsh heads turned towards me with questioning looks. I fished in my pocket and produced the keys of the car I was using - the Hillman estate hack runabout!
We left without another word.

BRT is just short for Brighton. I have BRT 001 on my work truck and now on my run-about BRT 002.
