Borr 5,743 Posted July 6, 2022 Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 Yep they do like all that , France was a bit of a surprise with their cemeteries , most had a small greenhouse attached to grave or mausoleum.... But if you're going to remember the dead through architecture or icons, best it's done in such places if the need is there, personally I remember them with stories and memories but we're all different.

We never sold a new Maxi, Allegro, Montego, Ambassadeur, Princess or Maestro. The only things we could shift were Metros, Minis, Rover SDIs and Triumph Acclaims. I once sold an Ital and the sales manager paid for a meal for my wife and myself. Every month or so the guy from the Honda dealers used to pop in for a chat and made a big deal of wiping up the oil that had leaked onto the showroom floor from brand new Austin Rover cars. served my time as a mechanic on most of these cars Quote Link to post Share on other sites
