[QUOTE="Steve Morris, post: 94007, member: 3648"] Thanks Bill, I see your point and will wait for Simon. In the meanwhile, i have done a little 'digging around'. I have in the file for the bike, the transfer document from the DOT. In the document is the name of the lady it was transferred to (the letters made up her name). The address is also there, so i looked it up along with the phone number, to no avail (it was done in 1983!). So, i googled her full name, and it appears she was quite a well known lady, a very glamourous lady working in the publishing industry, but she was sadly killed in a cycling incident in London in 2006 aged 42. So, born in 1964, she would have been 19 at the time of transfer, being a well educated lady, working in London, it is entirely feasible as she was driving an MG (the original reg No of my bike was transferred to an MG). After reading her obituary, there was mention of her partner, a chap with a double barrelled name, who has his own antiques company in Cornwall. The obituary also mentioned that the lady in question had bought a house in Cornwall with this chap, which is the address she put on the transfer form, to co-incidental for me? So, I have sent a message to this chap and am awaiting reply. I will of course keep you all updated, Regards, Maigrait. [/QUOTE]
