Paul Hogan Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 Back in the 1990s while waiting for a ferry in the Scottish islands in our TRs a little old lady said I used to have one of those. When pressed for more information she revealed that she was Rosemary Smith the ex works rally driver. A super lady. Hoges Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B Fitzpatrick Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Hi Paul, I have to take issue with your description of Rosemary as a “little old lady”, a description of her appeared in the Irish Times as being tall, blonde and slender with excellent deportment, and certainly the enclosed photo is not that of a little old lady in fact quite a formidable presence !
