Dedicated to Mary Wilson
Do you know what an Austin Cambridge was?

This Austin Cambridge was our family car when I was a thirteen year old, awkward teenager
Holding my brand new transistor radio, in the back seat of that car, I was waiting for the ferry and our family holiday. It was a sunny day
The DJ on BBC Radio One introduced The Supremes singing Automatically Sunshine
Now this wasn’t classic Supremes
This wasn’t Diana Ross
This was Mary Wilson, Jean Terrell and Cindy Birdsong
Fin de ciecle Supremes
My life rather changed that day. Sunshine was never again Automatic

I will tell you more about that summer, and how I changed, in future posts
Do you enjoy reading my stories? I love writing them. My day job is shopkeeping
