SierraMikeHotel Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 There was an Austin ambassador in the guardian money help pages yesterday.I saw my mum at the weekend. She has absolutely no interest in cars so I was quite surprised when she said, "I read something in the paper about an Austin Ambassador and now I can't get that blooming song out of my head!" jumpingjehovahs, mercrocker, richardmorris and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go religiously to Cropredy though, it's like Christmas for me.My grandad (rip) used to live in middleton Cheney and once took me in his allagro fandom plahs (sic) to cropredy for a quiet lunch time drink. The place was "packed with fucking hippies" no seats anywhere. Landlord found someone prepared to sit on the grass outside to let an 85 year old sit down in a proper chair. barefoot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownnova Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I just had an offer accepted on a house... Said house has a double garage with an inspection pit in it, and outside parking for many cars.

I do cut my hair these days though. I love festivals but I do worry about the impact on the locals - at Cropredy I salve my conscience by putting cash into every local charity bucket that comes around, and buying breakfast at the local places rather than the food vans.

barefoot Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I love festivals but I do worry about the impact on the locals. I live in Castle Donington - the heavy metal capital of the known universe.Download festival causes minimal traffic disruption in the village, if you think ahead & avoid it.The supermarket, campsite, pubs & cafés thrive, there is no trouble and you can barely hear the music.
