![[Image: grandprixdelongbridge.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/grandprixdelongbridge.jpg) ![[Image: grandprixdelongbridgeb.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/grandprixdelongbridgeb.jpg) ![[Image: grandprixdelongbridged.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/grandprixdelongbridged.jpg) Yes I know under the rules this probably should not get a page, but it's too good a sequence not to - and we've already got another J40 entry. And the comments page for this compilation is cluttered already. Commentary calls this the "Grand Prix De Longbridge". Winner gets a congratulatory handshake from Sir Leonard Lord ..... ![[Image: grandprixdelongbridgee.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/grandprixdelongbridgee.jpg) .... when he was ennobled in 1962 they had to create a contrived name for him as "Baron Lambury, of Northfield in the County of Warwick" (actually Northfield was a suburb of Birmingham on the A38 Bristol Road a mile or two from Longbridge). The problem was his surname - the usual elevation to a peerage would have made him Lord Lord. -- Last edit: 2015-05-21 02:13:07 (DidierF) |
