Title: Jethro's chair won't die.

Last seen for sale as a sad old wreck some years after he sold the complete outfit, club member Jethro's sidecar has resurfaced in the hands of the bloke who also bought my brother's outfit. Small world eh?

The bloke has renovated jethro's old Gemini and it's for sale on Ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230380932595&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123):

Jehtro's outfit was parked alongside a bus stop outside the Elefant rally and a waggish German called it "eine grosse Englischer onmibus" (excuse german spelling). He was, of course, an idiot, most buses are much smaller than that.
