Don't trust what you read.

Through the post came this 4 page wine club booklet.
Now I don't drink but the image on the bottom right hand corner interested me.Inside yet another drawing of something that looked familiar.

And another view/drawing of the same little van. How interesting. So hot on the trail, lets find out about this van. Maybe they would have a nice period shot of it.

Having trawled the web site and e-mailed them it would appear that they have never had a j type, the advert agency in their wisdom using a "generic" old van drawing to brighten up the pages, looks better than the actual first van they had, a MK1 Ford Transit. Therefore the quote has nothing to do with a J type and I would have thought a Ford Transit  could have easily managed 40 mph.
In the blurb they quote "wines of authenticity" unlike their sales leaflet, which is a bit unauthentic in truth.
The next unanswered question, why have most of the other J blogs dried up? Come on boys ONCE a week maybe Ok for your sex lives, but most have slipped into the marriage thing, once a year on your Birthday, we want more entries!!! (on the blogs).

Hi Charlie, watch out for the mailman, small package on the way to you......
