Yeah thats the one I was thinking of. How did he get the name Reggie? I think
he must have won tattslotto last year or something because he used to have a
filthy light blue coat for years and all of a sudden he turned up on the Swan
Hill tour with a new dark blue coat and he had all new photographic and sound
recording equipment.

I was in the M car at the Belgrave end of the train and quite a few nuts seemed
to go to the leading M car whenever we changed direction. Motormouth was one of
them :-(
