Damn you H - there was I ready to a reprise of my fruit identity parade in the bath for Oranges are not the Only Fruit and you beat me to it. To cap it all Del does Streetcar. I did one once of a workmates Street Ka with a re-done number plate so that repeat has gone too. Don`t know the first one - thought Airplane at first but only one word  ???

Back to the drawing board...

My imagination has left me completely lately and I'm having a real hard job keeping up with everything.

Whatever ... even I managed to guess a A Street Car named Desire - well done Del! I like it.
