reminiscences

"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently" Henry Ford  He's also supposed to have said : "You can paint it any colour, so long as it's black"  I remember driving the "sit up and beg Ford Popular 103E" back in the 70's. My then boyfriend used to buy them cheap at the car auction at Alexander Palace and tart them up for sale. He had a tin of black paint for the bodywork and silver for the wheels. Also lots of wire wool to stuff up the exhaust pipe if it was a bit dodgy !
