While doing a bit of reading on my Family History I came across this story of my Great Grandfather. A.E. Cockram. It seems among other things he was the first person to own a Rolls Royce in Western Australia. It was obvious he was a typical rev head of the day and decided to be a bit adventurous with it. The Rolls is a 1913 model.

Now that's something I had not considered Peter, even more work to take into retirement.
