One case in particular springs to mind. It was so bizarre we questioned whether or not we should take it on.

Started in the UK-to India-to Australia and other locations en-route.

We did advise the client from day one, there was a 95% chance of failure. John would often be working on this case sometimes up until 4 am. Commercial madness or what?

Problem # 0ne! None of the parties had actually seen each other since 1955! Which is where as children they were all living in Calcutta.

Our client now in his 80s was born and lives in the UK. But spent much of his childhood in India.

His initial commission instruction sent us on a search taking in-India-UK-Perth – Western Australia.

Nerve jangling for our client’s nerves!

This was a case so challenging even the client himself implored us to give-up. Here is the story Luckily, John ignored his instructions.

When you are done there is more!

John was asked some of his thoughts and memories of the 1960s?

To cover it all in any detail he would need to write a book. However a quick snapshot overview-

If only there existed a parallel universe, somewhere we could go and repeat it all over again. That’s how much I enjoyed it. It was so good I wouldn’t swap those incredible times even in exchange for regaining my youth.

Now approaching my autumn years

Although now approaching the “tail end” years I don’t envy the young. On the contrary, I can say categorically I do not like ‘today’ very much at all.

Now in my mid-70s, I am proud to have been part of those unforgettable 1960s. Oh, to go back!

To just think of the dazzling array of emerging new styles and fashions The way – out clothing, pop groups and the different music they played.

Young people with “freaky long hair” as mum and dad saw it.

The Hippies, Carnaby Street, The Roundhouse, unveiling of the E-Type Jaguar at the Geneva motor show, Road testing the “AC Cobra” on the MI at speeds up to 200 mph. Twiggy, Mary Quant, Landing on the moon, winning the world cup, Ford Corsair, Vauxhall Victor, Cresta, Mini, Ford Cortina. Hi-Fi sound.
