Ok, so #Ferrari. Well, you can’t travel to #Italy for the first time, Milan specifically, and not take a day out to visit Maranello. All religions have their “Mecca” and, let’s be honest, there is no car company more globally famous than Enzo’s Ferrari.

Dear small d**k compensating Porsche Cayenne driver (parked across the pavement not in the drive and 2ft of the rear of the car still on the road causing me to walk into the driveway to negotiate your car).

You’re the twat, not me.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It’s cold and damp. Why should you open your windows and let your curtains flap around? 😆

If we explain to Nigel that we're not calling him a racist in a hurtful or insulting way, perhaps he'll be a little less salty about it.

Screens in cars. We all hate them. Well a petrolhead pal of mine (whose dad is also a car guy) wants to sell his 4-month old BMW. Why? Because he’s 83 and, now that it’s cold, he can’t work the HVAC or heated seats/wheel as they’re all on the screen.

Screens in cars are moronic.

Well today has just been mental/awful/stressful, possibly all of the above. I’ve earned this.

Will coffee follow suit?

Probably not.

I had a different model from this manufacturer at the time, which helped nail the year.

Trump is under extreme pressure now with the Epstein List. He appears to be in panic mode. The house of cards is collapsing rapidly and we should all be very worried how he will continue to react to global issues. Let’s hope the team around him have the courage to stop any dangerous mistakes.

I mean it’s *almost* like F1 under American ownership is intentionally manufactured & interfered with to be as dramatic as possible. 🙄
BREAKING: Both McLaren cars of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have been disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix

This is because the thickness of the rearmost skid of both cars was less than the required thickness

Also today: 4x4 FTW! BIL had to fetch these gazebos and got stuck in the snow before even loading the trailer. Unstuck the trailer, loaded up and drove out then hauled out his van. Happy days.

I’m full of the cold/shattered and just re read this post. Sorry, that’s an awful skeet. Will try harder tomorrow.
10 years ago, out of the blue, someone on Twitter came out of the blue to ask me if I was the chap that bought his 306 Rallye - around a decade earlier.

I miss old Twitter for stuff like that.

Any MS flight sim players out there? Need advice for a yoke for the boys Xmas. He’s 11 so nothing too £££ please! He has a Logitech wheel so thinking their yoke set might be decent, too? #pc #gaming #flightsim
