Just in case Sam, you are hooked on getting another "Tarpan" :D

I see the Morris pick-up in 'your cars' is said to be used for carrying animal seed. Why bother with all that extra bodywork? - A few test tubes should do... ;)

I've just worked my way through the events calendar and there's a worrying number of errors. OK, everyone knows Silverstone isn't in Somerset but things like days and dates are important to get right.
Here's a tip lads - forget all the tired old lines about tea drinking and the like, just get back into the old habits of checking and sub-editing rather than just pouring stuff into the page template. Your readers deserve better.

I was a bit surprised to find that my fellow Matranut Roy Gillard had been transplanted from his home in North London to Bath, though probably not as surprised as he was :)
