Rob Elliott, our guest speaker on Monday 9th November, shared with us his experience in the motor industry and establishing the assembly of a number of well- known models, including the Fiat Bambino, and finally the Honda cars, along with his appreciation of Japanese culture. After the death of his talented Japanese wife, Reiko, he must have achieved some solace from his writing. I certainly enjoyed reading  ‘Don’t Come Back’, a record of Reiko’s early life in Japan and then their nearly 30 years together. His latest book ‘Murder Comes to the U3A’ was also an intriguing read.
