Just checking; did you mean "direct drives" or Drives Direct?

I used to enjoy a visit to Tracy (sic) Tools when they were in Twickenham

Thank you for clearing that up. Coincidentally, I had occasion to speak to Dave at Drives Direct and he mentioned that Direct Drives is in the tarmac business – inversion is a powerful thing!
