I take to long to do posts with my eyes and get logged of before finished so doing it in stages.

When the little scrote Heath who was around nineteendid his first TT we were joined in the garages by the late Len Williams a former wartime RN destroyer commnder and John Denty from Bristol. Bob was up to a lot of antics that really p**** off Albert the Coloneland particularly John Denty's spanner man. I was not there but a summary court marshall was held and a decision was made that he should be punished I had already gone to the digs for dinner, when the rest turned up I was told Bob was not hungry, when we returned I found out Heathy had been bound hand and foot to a pillar and a hose pipe running cold water had been stuck down the front of his kecks and he had been left to cool him off. John Denty was sadly killed a few months later at tubbergen in Holland and I bought his almost brand new Thames van of his Mother.

Some years later Albert had a CR93 and 250 Aermacchi that he kept in his bedrooom at his bungalow, I was in there browsing a photo racing album and I saw some photos that I was not supposed to and was told never to mention them in racing circles, thereafter much to Alberts annoyance I always refered to him as.

The Last of the Bengal Lancers.

All great friends to whom I will be enternally grateful for the help and ship in starting me racing not the same these days as when everyone mucked in together.
