Saw First Aid Kit live tonight, they're bloody amazing. The best concert I've been to by far.

Been watching them for a while since I saw them do this cover of Dancing Barefoot, with Patti Smith in tears in the audience.

 

 

Brilliant duo and Johanna is gorgeous.

Cort:  For a second there, I thought that was a white Rover 25.

Just found this painting by Alex Collville, autoshite's second favourite artist.

That would be 19th Street in Potrero Hills if you want to go to exact that spot.

Apparently a novice rally stage is coming right past my actual house at 02:00 on the 15th February. Like, 15 feet from my living room window. :-)

Nosing around on facebook and I found a couple of pictures from 4L International in 2011 of me and my van. Well chuffed to find these as I lost my camera somewhere on the way home so obvs I have now stolen and rehosted these pictures.  Booked to go to the show again this summer and absolutely can't wait!

Wow. I heard them on the radio a while back, but that was astonishingly intense. ALL MODERN MUZIK R NOT SHYTE.

 

EDIT - here's my own grin. Just found this photo I took at the International Citroen Car Clubs Rally in 2012. Who needs four wheels?

I'm in Australia. It's warm, sunny and there is an amazing amount of old chod on the roads. I will be looking to buy a car myself out here shortly, I'm looking for something manual with airco but the possibilities seem to be pretty much endless.

Here's a very small selection of the chod that has been within a few streets of where I am staying, expertly photoed on my $99 smart phone which came with $50 free credit - there is currently about $2 to the pound.

Oooooo I looked at it today, maybe it was me!

 

It's a brilliant read Mr B, in fact I read the whole thing over 2 evenings last month. You should get it published.

Saw a Citroen C4 Cactus today for the first time , made me grin as someone thought these look good enough to actually spend money on.

VERDICT Fuggly in the extreme :)

I really like 'em. The local dealership had a demonstrator at the 2cv 24hr race, in the worst kind of green. Thumbs up from me!

Its white on my computer.

It has been changed to white:)

 

It was a fair point that was made-the blue background/black text was not the best combo.

Well if you're going to fix stuff other people complain about, your header picture isn't in a high enough resolution for my computer.
