  • When two (well...one and a half) weren't enough, I decided to add ANOTHER Citroën SM to my collection of old crocks, only this one is different to all the others.
    (It's much, much tidier!)

    You got me - though I did think that you could not have enough space to store number 3. The best fool stories are the ones that are totally believable and you have enough 'previous' for this one to be true🙂
