Mike recalls:
“Not long after he bought the Ford, George could afford to trade it for a flash Jaguar. It was the first time I’d ever been in a car where you just pressed a button and the window wound up and down by magic. When he knocked on our Allerton front door demanding photos of his latest acquisition, I protested - ‘But George, it’s getting dark.’
‘Bring your flash,’ came the reply.
‘And it’s raining!’ I added.
‘Bring your umbrella,’ he finalized.”
