[TR] Happy Birthday, John MacCartney

[Notakitcar]

John,

The pleasure has been mine, sometimes I can see myself at the assembly line or the sales floor through your comments and books.   It does seem the email traffic has quieted, but not gone as the various TR marques are well represented on Facebook these days.

 

I seem to recall you are working on another book, is this so?  Please keep me posted.

 

All the best,

Bill B

Thank you, Bill. It’s been a pleasure for me to read all the posts down the years, even though my contributions these days are few and probably not at all helpful. It seems ‘the list’ these days is a mere shadow of its former self but then so many contributors have died, sold their cars and/or migrated to other forums. I’m a member of two of those others which frankly I find rather boring and over-segmented into different model groups whose adherents/supporters don’t want to cross-polinate on model preferences.

Anyway, keep the posts coming please, everyone. They’re still a source of great pleasure to an ‘oldie’ and a very pleasant reminder of happier days in a less troubled world.
