In my collection is an Isle of Man Weekly Times dated 9th June 1978....

On page 4 is a "First Rate Article" entitled "Hailwoods Lucky Thirteenth" which was written by a very accomplished young racing fan, 14 years old. It is a very good full page article with a super pic of Mike and should be reproduced this year, the 30th anniversary of Mikes Return.

We must get permission from this young man who has now matured a bit, like a good wine.

SO, Mr Barry Wood of Willaston, Isle of Man, come on down, we need you to re submit this article !!!
