    Pic of the day

    Will you get if finished before Christmas? I can send some limewash brushes if that’d help.

    What you drinking now?

    At the very beginning of what I hope will be a marathon of classic rugby, I’m getting in the spirit with a classic Negroni.

    Christmas 2023

    We’ve hedged our bets this year and gone for one shop bought tree, one home grown and one artificial. Can’t help feeling a Trident would look better on the top.

    What you drinking now?

    A classic with many imitators. My eldest came to work with me rebuilding a cottage this summer and we had the Aldi version unwokely called Cheese puffs in our packed lunches. Over a six week period, we counted and logged the numbers in each packet with the average coming out at 35.6. I was...

    Quavers would have been lovely, but they were a mix of Tesco's prawn ******* things to go with a Thai green curry. Quite spicy and demolished before the kids got anywhere near them.

    Organic red from Alba, next door to Barolo and delicious.

    Pic of the day

    Reminded me of the first one I ever saw - poor photo of it at Monza ‘86 GP. Still cheaper to buy all the above, than the three 250 GTOs lined up at a soggy Silverstone (also mid eighties).

    Route recommendations please, for UK to Modena

    I’d highly recommend the National Motor Museum in Turin and the Lingotto.

    I think it’s one to watch with all the climate change stuff going on. I was in your camp a few years ago, but have changed my mind

    What you drinking now?

    Other Voices comes to Cardigan this weekend, so I thought I’d start with an appropriately named red before we head out. I think the kids call it pre-loading.

    A few of us on here like a little French car

    Went to see a potential job yesterday and the owner has had this since new. He also owns a Routemaster bus.

    Rugby union

    I thought this was appropriate, but it tastes worse than a one pointer. It might be ok for stewing some pears.

    A little pre-match wine tasting

    Khamsin Too Far Gone?

    It’s on AutoScout for 46,000 euros, so destined to remain rusty I fear. There are four LHDs, one at 125k euros - not looking as good in bright red as its original Luci del Bosco. Two blue ones in Holland at 169k euros and 139k. There’s also someone flying a kite in Italy at 299k euros!

    Khamsin Too Far Gone?

    I’d expect that to cost £100k to restore at a specialist, but you’d end up with a glorious car. Thing is, you would probably have to wait 18 months to get it done and most decent RHD Khamsins I’ve seen for sale over the past few years have been around the £120-150k mark, so you’d be better off...

    It worked and it tasted lovely. I’m now looking forward to going to work on Monday, despite having to get up even earlier thanks to the 20mph limits. If Wales ever win a World Cup, it’ll be independence next and the few remaining revenue generating businesses will leave. The gene pool will...
