Ken, Hi,no nothing in Taupo, Had an uncle in Morrinsville in partnership in a garage though, Ball & Hirst, you may recall them, uncle contracted polio as a child & spent his life in leg irons but boy could he still get over, under & around cars, neat guy & did some great restorations, All the best for the festive season Ken.

Thanks Kevin,
When was your uncle in Morrinsville ?
I know some wonderful people who have suffered with polio and admire what they can still achieve in life.
