My board was lying on the floor after a surf. It is made by Firewire and the brand is a Hellfire.  Firewire make several different boards and one of them is called a Spitfire.

A German guy came over and stared at my board and said to me: Iz Dat a Spitfire? ….. I really want a Spitfire!

I started laughing and wanted to say “Your Grandfather would have wanted exactly the same thing 75 years ago.”
