Hi Bobnetau,
That doesn't seem to rhyme with the news we're getting here about lock-downs, curfews, 10,000 dollar fines and police breaking into cars because the occupants refuse to identify themselves.

Good on you. JD.

Re: Dodds' Motor Tours 1950

Re: Not the THREETOWNS but close
A classic example of mass hysteria. Intelligent, well-educated people were kneeling in the front garden saying the rosary and saying that the amosphere was just like Lourdes.
