Rumours of my death or more particularly my car aren't true but sad to hear that their inspiration has died -
https://uk.yahoo.com/news/derek-fowlds- ... 25138.html . Not sure whether this counts as off topic but since Blaketon drive a Minor Traveller, I think we can say it's Minor related. As a matter of interest, do any of our number own the Traveller that was in Heartbeat?
