Closer to home, I hear that there's a 1957 Booker DB, hidden away in the Midlands.
Who knows the value of one of them? :dunno:
Cheers, Mike.

It made our local papers as we live about 20 km south of the farm. I can believe the heirs not knowing what they had been left....if you notice it's about 20 years later that they probably went to the place.......lots of french families fight over whether to sell & split the money, it only takes one of them to say no....
B****y Napoleonic law is usually the trouble.....

Not to mention the ten Lancasters beneath those.
