bx spotted and talked to

Post by tzd »

just had a funny experience. I had Just picked up a computer from Blackpool and was travelling along the m55 wondering if everything was with the pc ? I decided to come off the motorway and check it, I had the boot of the car open when I heard a BX horn behind me and there standing before me was a Green BX Hurricane, in beautiful condition and a nice chap, who we had a nice long chat with. It turns out that the man is "Hurricane" and a member of this group. Nice to meet you Hurricane.

It isn't just a car it is a BX and it's my BX. Long live the BX.

Quite a while back, my brother got talking to a chap with a dark green BX at a car-boot sale at Churchtown, along the lines of "my sister has got one of these"to which the reply was "I've got another one just like it at home!" Another possible sighting of "Hurricane"s Dad?
