What fun we had on 20hp Rallies at home and abroad.  Often our cars would drive together.  David and Graham would discuss at length petrol and oil consumption, maintenanceand modifications much to Mary's annoyance when such discussions continued over dinner in the evening! When we stopped en route Mary and I would sometimes do our own thing and leave them to discuss their favourite subject matter.  

On one such occasion we arrived in a little French town.  Mary spied a toilet, a sentry style box in the town square.  Carpe diem! this was an opportunity not to be missed. Mary strode forward and pulled the outward opening door to reveal a startled seated male whose umbrella fell and wedged the door ajar.  With profuse apologies and the inability to remove the offending umbrella without further embarrassment we beat a hasty retreat to our cars.  Sinking deep in our seats, sunglasses on and brims pulled down on our hats we instructed our men to drive on and they concluded it might be better to keep a tighter rein on us in future.
