Congratulations - at least it gives the kid something interesting to
aim for... if they so wish.
A very esteemed member of the MGB Car Club here in Adelaide, fellow
motorsport Steward and my Chief Sector Marshal at the coming Rally of
South Australia (just a plug for those who like those things) is a
true gentleman named Leyland George.
When I was first introduced to him I thought it was a nickname -
especially as he was am MG owner - but nope, that is his name.
Thank god he didn't choose to be a Ferrari fanatic... or maybe his
name chose his hobby for him!
