The U-bend incident was 1975 IIRC.
That would be before the hot summer evening which was livened up a bit when some abandoned belts of .303 began cooking off in a rubbish skip in Ally Pally. A mysterious event , which was then followed closely by a RR Land Rover screaming out to its post via the security gate , which happened to be closed at the time.
