Was searching for something to do with 'registrations' and had to chuckle when this was one of the things it threw back at me:

Not centred on JRT, but makes quite interesting reading.

That was very interesting. It is an uber distinctive name. One of my friends at work was taught music at school in London by a Mr Rhind -Tutt, age wise would probably make him an uncle.

Thanks for that Rosie. I bet Julian would be absolutely
amazed at the things we find relating to the Rhind-Tutts ...wonder what his bike reg no. is?!!

Thanks for that...it was really interesting!
And Di - you can see Julian's bike reg if you pause the GW DVD in certain places...not that I've ever done that.

Thanks for the interesting read Rosie... I like the bit about the hitch-hiker being a "pick pocket and nicking the copper's notepad!" and also the fact that Charles RT happened to pick up a hitch-hiker in Hartley Witney (I used to live there for about 20 years)...so of all the random places to pick up a hitch-hiker?! How bizarre is that? Ooohh freaky!
