There's a place near Costco Birmingham, so 1/2 mile from the M6. That half mile could take you 20 mins at the wrong time of day though. 

Birmingham a bit of a run from Redcar, Cleveland!

Absolutely wonderful to see so many classic and sports cars being used today in the south.

I'm just adding to this thread again to say that I may have died and gone to heaven. 

I saw a Citroen SM in the wild today. 

That is all.

Remember this thing? I posted the image in another thread just now. Curiosity got the better of me as I wondered whether it was still logged as a car...

Turns out it's a Passat!

It looks as like he's had to do an IVA since though. Good man for logging the make appropriately! DooVLA must have had a chuckle when registering it...

Taking the phrase "that Passat looks like a bit of a shed" into a whole new meaning.

Got called a prick on Twitter for telling someone that I'm not going to help them illegally acquire the ADHD meds I'm on. Their entire timeline is replying to tweets mentioning Ritalin and Adderall asking where they can get them without a diagnosis.

It's currently running a 400+bhp RS4 lump and sits on air suspension. If he removed the shed bits and welded a Passat back on, he'd have a right animal!

Think I watched a video a wee while back about it. I love how insane it is. :D

Anyway whenever I see a Citroën Nemo, I always hear Scenes from a night's dream... 

Odd. 😅

My personal opinion is Steve Hackett was a bigger loss to genesis than Peter Gabriel 

I absolutely love wind & wuthering and trick of the tail and still play them regularly.

Have a listen to Lunatic Soul , a thousand shards of heaven 

It's on YouTube if you don't have a streaming service

Meanwhile on the Ukrainian version of Harry's farm...

I do wonder what the "legalities" is of it, like your Mr Farmer and you help yourself an APC from the invading Russians and stick it in your barn, then lets say (and hope!) the Russia withdraw the next day or 2

do you now have free APC? are you allowed to keep it?

My Dad got this box of Digestives (12 packs) for around 6 quid at a local supermarket, happy days in my household:

You just reminded me that I had a dream last night, where I said I was listening to a lot of Prog Rock and my friends gave me a list of albums to listen to. However the albums were all shite and I had to avoid everyone to avoid upsetting them.

But what if I don't like it? 

Or are you trying to get rid of me?

Saturday just gone my 6 year old daughter did her first motorcycle trial 😀

It was only meant to be a quick play after the proper trial like she had done previously but the local club booked her in for the full monty . 
She was very nervous and we had a few refusals to begin with . But to be fair to her some of the sections were easily as tough as adult long distance road trial ones 😬.

But after a few goes she loved it . 
 

She even made it on the Oset cup website !!!

Massive thanks to the Camborne Redruth Motor club esp Howard
