A random walk in the Dorset Countryside and I come across a "banger racing" meet. A few mean comments about the scene could be made here but huge credit to them, there was a very high proportion of girls racing too...
We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

It was a small hybrid, and she halved her personal footprint by giving me a lift! And the next day she was going on holiday somewhere way south (off Spain, I think) by train and ferry, rather than driving or flying.
Stevo would be glad to know she can't afford to be an absolutist: whilst I'm sure she does all she can for public transport, in a sparsely-populated mountainous/rural constituency, some level of car-usage will be part of the mix for a very long time, though I' sure if I questioned her (which would be a pleasure, if we ever bumped into each other again - she does follow my FB Page), she'd have all sorts of views about how car usage can be reduced.

Ha, I PM'd my photo of the outside seating for a very local pizza place, wondering if they'd like to use it, and I'm getting a free pizza out of it. I'm an influenza!
I've got that right, haven't I?

Still think the French have it right when it comes to work and lunch.
little place a 5 minute walk away. Everyone knows everyone. Lots of hand shaking, lovely wine, decent food. they even get the right amount of wine - not pouring half a bottle into your glass before your big afternoon meeting.

I believe the wine is on the way out for a lot of people, which feels outrageous

Yep, I always enjoyed the lunches when visiting our GMC office in Lyon. Monheim / Frankfurt / Dusseldorf not so much.
