The wife & I went to a friends house for the evening same as we have done for the last couple of years. This mate, Andrew, is very much into his cars, racing & restoring them so all the usual car nuts were there plus some new faces. I remember vaguely being introduced to someone called Amanda early on but I'm hopeless with names so didn't think much of it. Later we were discussing the Trio At The Top DVD I got for Christmas (a doco about Bruce McLaren, Denny Hulme & Chris Amon) & this Amanda women starts talking about the production of it as if she knew something about it. Andy saw the confused look on my face & said, "don't you recognise her from the DVD? It's Amanda McLaren." I nearly fell backwards into the pavlova! Bruce's daughter for gawd's sake. Sometimes you just never appreciate how well connected your friends are. I'd always thought I was the most interesting person Andy knew. [:D]
Hey, Hasbeen, you'll be pleased to know that even though she likes cars she is more into her horses.
Actually what was more interesting was that fellow wedge enthusiast Eion, had bought a Grinnall 2+2 TR7 V8. I'll be seeing that on Sunday so more later.
Never say die. At least not while you're still breathing.
