Ha! I was right- thought it was the Giro but the gruppo looked wrong. I had a blue Bottechia Pro that I raced with for years back in the 70's. The Columbus tubing was a nice feel in the large frame size. For good classic British frames I also had an RJW Reynolds. Very nice bike.
Your Mercian is in great shape- what a cherry of a bike that is.
