Ok Simon,

A acquaintance and long time customer of mine, the Right Hon Greg Knight MP
was the prime mover behind the 25 year thing. I will "bend his ear" if and
when the Tories get back in power.  He is into all manner of classic cars,
manly Buicks and Bentleys

I also look forward to receiving your subs Simon, it will go towards the
fancy new improved membership cards I'm having made.

The rolling 25 year old tax exempt scheme was brought in by the
tories. It promptly halted quite steathily when Tony's bunch of
muppets got in power.

I do beleive reading somewhere that the tories promised to re-
instate it if they got in power. But thats probably a 'loaded'
statement.

BTW Apologies Chris P, my renewal is on its way - been a 'little'
busy lately.
