Great to see you here! The Ian thing is, as I understand it, not a completely personal thing (although having ignored me entirely when recognizing him and saying a polite hello at Cambridge Services a few years ago did colour him a tad poorly for me). I think the hero-worship stuff from his own litt...

Hnnnnng.....

Don’t think I have seen one of these in the metal for 20 years!

A couple from Milan today. Not a great deal of chance to snap stuff as I have to navigate in Chinese to a chap who likes to drive like an Italian. 8B6537B0-166C-408E-AF75-8EFB2BE88CE7.jpeg 22A29EAA-64FC-4301-9573-10F02BD28FA9.jpeg Just a quick note to any of you here who volunteered their services f...

There you go. Got it on the way back

Christ it’s dismal weather in northern Spain right now! 11 degrees and pissing down. I brought shorts for this?

Rob Jenner has a really weird spec cream insignia Majestic 3.2 with taxi spec and quads. Looks really gawky. Japan had a few lav...

There used to be a rose bronze 4.0 Sovereign near Tesco on the A140 outside Norwich (L610WDU - a few digits away from mine and another 12 (L644WDU) that lives nearby) that always looked glorious. Stopped to chat with the owner and he loved it. Right up until he ditched it when in failed to start one...

I made up my mind to sell my V12 the other day. Living in Asia, being everywhere except UK when not in Asia, not having a place of my own (renting it out) to keep it and costing a fair bit (although at mates’ rates) to store at Jenner Towers, not seeing a future where I can use it and not trusting m...

Delightful old thing in a delightful colour.

That place looks idyllic. Can almost smell the coffee and croissants... I will be in San Sebastián next month, and a few Italian towns. I am really looking forward to a bit of that.
