Many moons ago I was at a cocktail party in Belfast at the home of some
friends of my parents. Patricia said 'Oh Bob, you are a car guy, you should
meet Collin' and introduced me to a nice guy and we talked road racing and
rallye for an hour or so. He said I really should give rallye a try and
invited me to come out the next Irish Rallye. I wasn't going to be in
country at the time, but said I thought it sounded grand and returned the
invite to come out and play at Lime Rock some time. After he left I found
out it was Collin McRea....
One of my class mates when I was in N. Ireland had an annoying little
brother a few grades younger than us, in the same class as my sister. Never
knew Eddie Irvine would go on to race in F1. :)
