Austraaaaaalia!

Post by mac » 06 Oct 2016 02:50 pm

Whilst lurking on the BBB stand at the VKB in Rosmalen I was approached by a show visitor - I got in first with my usual "English preferably old boy, empire and all that".

The response - "that'll do for me mate, I'm from Melbourne!"

Turns out he was Mark Iceton from Carson & Murphy of the Berry Motor Group (used car sales, repairs and) who have an extensive salvage yard and carry a large range of new, used and reco(nditioned) parts. In Uropy on family business he was visiting the show.

Of interest to those here in OZ was his reply to "do you have any Volvo 300 stuff"? - "oh yes, several rows of them in the yard!"

Of course, you most probably know him, but in case not,

Mark Iceton,
Berry Motor Group,
16 Thornton Crescent,
Mitcham 3132

Tel. (In OZ) 9874 5544
fax. 9874 8833
sales@berrymotorgroup.com.au

And here they are -

Great - Mitcham's just down the road from me ;-0

My cruel (sadly, late) friend who hated South-West London and environs, used to say something like.... 'Mitcham, Morden, Bordon' or maybe it was 'boredom' - I will never know, now! Still, it looks like there's a lot to get excited about in Mitcham of Oz!!
