My third TR6 - all 3 were PI - was "Mellow Yellow". Its claim to fame was
not so much its colour as bringing a coffee table from Alicante, Spain, over
the Pyrennees and to home in Merrie England, perched on the boot rack. The
only 100mph coffee table that I know, and we still have it with us in here
USA. Before anyone asks, it came here by boat from France, where we were
living before we landed here!

Hey, I remember that coffee table when you lived at Breuilpont. If I'm not 
mistaken, it's
the same one that had the dented coffee pot on it from the shop window display. 
Didn't you
tell me you were in such a hurry to get away from Alicante, the slipstream blew 
the pot
off the tabletop.  And didn't Griz rush back to fetch it while you kept the 
engine running
and the clutch disengaged for a quick getaway?
