Did anyone spot the dreadful mistake in my last email?

It must be advancing years and the need to make time pass more slowly that makes older folk make mistakes with dates. In that email I stated that I built my first SLX frame in March 1983...that clearly should be 1984. I remeber it being a "big deal" to have these tubes before anyone else in the UK because at that time Columbus did not have an approved distributor. Ron Kitching eventually took the agency..but I had frames on the road before "Mr. Cycling".
