As exciting evenings go, I am waiting in the car to collect my drunk wife and her friend at the station on their return from watching Top Hat in Liverpool 🙃

Such attention to detail plus morale boosting margaritas should prove invincible. You won the bake off, what can go wrong?

Be ungovernable! Have fun too

On tour in France and had a visit to Maison de l’Automobile. Eclectic sample of some excellent examples.

En route to Narbonne today, spent a few hours at Maison de l’Automobile just south of Rennes. Huge and diverse collection of cars, bikes, speed boats and horsedrawn carriages. A fabulous place.

Is it looking as good as your tales about Centerparcs? You will be aware of the medical file note on a patient’s record NFN. Normal for Norfolk.

Not a paint spray rattle can, that’s a relief.

Does the can rattle when you shake it?

This might be what winning at life looks like, a pink #Cadillac convertible with hair to match.

Enjoy. Advocaat was the first drink I got drunk on at 15, not had it since. Glad you’re enjoying it 😁

You could be the new “buddy Christ”, at least until it recovers.

Same here, I have always enjoyed the bizarre. Douglas Adams’ babel fish and a Pangalactic Gargleblaster on a Saturday night.

Friend of mine used to eat dry Weetabix with jam on. He, too, is ungovernable.

Attended many weary conferences at that venue, a strange mix of Gothic main building with post modern Premier Inn round the back.

Love these tiny French two strokes, technically a light quadricycle or “pots de yaourt” - yoghurt pots. Can be driven from age 14 without a licence and popular with banned drink drivers I understand.
Here’s a sad one with a floppy mirror at Bouzigues in Southern France.
