lol I can imagine Noel would have had a good laugh about that when he
found it, I didn't get chance to phone him as it was late when he sent me the text. It will be a few days before I can talk to him, it's my father-in-laws funeral tomorrow so we're a bit subdued here at the moment.

When Peter Norton sold the company to Symantec, he gave them the first copy
of the book. He's still lol, maybe from the grave, I really don't know his current body temperature. -- I mastered Wordstar graphics!

No Joan, unfortunately not. And they don't even make the rotary-engined
Command-er that did so very well in the road racing not so long ago! Even when we can *still* make something really well the powers-that-be allow it to fail. Shane "Joan Archer" wrote in message ...

I think Ron had a Norton bike in Jamaica......I will have to ask him.
Whatever he had, he messed up and never rode one again. Wussie!! (G) Figgs (and we are talking *OLD* here.....this would have been late '40's) "Shane" wrote in message ... No Joan, unfortunately not.

I'd guess an ES2 then. Can't imagine an Inter on Jamaica somehow. Last time
I saw one of those was at Bracknell Motorcycle Auction in about '76. Or rather parked outside. I went up on the back of a mate's 350 Matchless. Very pretty in the stately silver way Nortons of the pre-rocker era usually were! And the guy who took me to that auction is the only one besides myself I knew from the old days who still rode a Bonnie in the 21st Century. Yes, do ask him what it was. Sure his name isn't really Ernesto? Shane "Heather" wrote in message ... I think Ron had a Norton bike in Jamaica......I will have to ask him. Whatever he had, he messed up and never rode one again.
