Gosh John. Plenty of free reading there for the long winter evenings. What a good find. Thanks.

I remember reading all those first time around.

HA, HA.  That's my 400/4 in Japanese Classic. I've still got it  .  I was Interviewed by 'Ian Wilson' for the feature, that wasn't his real name, when he knocked at the front door I knew exactly who 'Ian Wilson' was but I was sworn to secrecy and can never reveal who he really is.  Ian, are you out there 

[Laverda Dave]

Yep, you are correct Oddjob, he was well known and working under an alias. I'll share the story why one day.
The 400/4 article was in the first edition of the magazine, the one with the RE5 story. I was in the VJMC at the time and club members received an early, thinner edition of the magazine and were asked to comment how it could be improved.  I commented and that's how I came to meet 'Ian'.
