Peter,
I have attached a wider photo, but I don't think it will help - it's very hard to see where the white wires go. Also, to complicate things, my car has had some re-wiring done to incorporate some relays and additional fuses, which you can't see in this photo.

However, I have had a look at the wiring diagrams on this site under Resources. There are a lot of "white" wires and although I haven't checked every one, assuming the wiring colours are formulaic, I suspect that all white wires go back to the ignition switch (which is far from ideal!).

If you look in the bottom left had corner of this diagram Resources - Bristol Cars - Owners and Enthusiasts Forum you will see the symbol which Bristol use for a fuse, labelled A3-A4 and attached to terminal 3 is a white wire going to the ignition switch.

I'm just guessing here, but perhaps the fuse boxes are A and B, and the fuses in each are 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, & 7-8.

PS. The brake boosters have been removed from my car, hence the bolt in the vacuum hose and the plastic bags over the ends of the hydraulic brake pipes.
