It’s OK, there’s a billboard on Hesketh Street.

Nah. You need a manual as your first car. I spent the night before picking mine up learning to heel and toe in the Ka while I still had three pedals.

There was one of those driving around Parking Bleu once. Not sure if that was a year you were there, so you might already know that.

I can’t believe how many things are now in a new place. Thanks for all the help!

That is a great cover, btw.

Slow down! I haven’t bought Issue 2 yet. Local TGJ (RIP WHS) didn’t have it, yet they had the first one.

Like an elephant in Kenya.

Adam Wilkins @adamwilkins.bsky.social · Aug 23

Yep!

This is more my cup of tea. For one thing, I’m not being small talked at by a stranger who’s drinking a giant can of Relentless while burping.

I’ve been on a train and now I’m on a bus. You couldn’t make this up.

The trusty Mondeo being support vehicle for a very different red K-reg car.

Either Snowdonia at sunset in my first Elise. I was on my way home from a week in Ireland and the car’s next owner was coming to collect it the next day.

Or two days pounding around Zolder in my Sylva Riot. Fuel and track time paid for by VAB in return for giving passenger laps.

I haven’t met one but I read about one only yesterday.

That’s what I thought! There’s an argument that it took a Cooper to catch a Cooper…
