Yes come back Amarillo, you are the natural successor to the late great Steve Wright in the afternoon.
I remember one of my first posts, I was trying to get 50mpg from the Cali by going downhill, streamlining behind lorries.
You advised me the only way it could be done was to drive round the M25 during an anticyclone with Trafalgar Square as its epicentre !
Now that was original.

You could, of course, achieve the same during a cyclone. You’d just need to reverse your direction.
Currently by a pool in the Dordogne region. We have Amarillo with us, but we are sleeping in a log cabin as a week’s rental of the cabin was the same price as a pitch.

While on holiday in Spain, @Jimmylondon07 and I were commenting on how few potholes there are on the roads of France and Spain compared to the UK. In general the road surfaces seem to be far better than here. So I took an example photo in Spain…
Look, not a single pothole in sight!!
Edit: He was in France and I was in Spain for avoidance of doubt…

Thats about right! I thought the Tories were bad but this clown Starmer is as bad (maybe worse). His party are good at arresting old people with cardboard slogans. Arresting political opponents next?
The Tall Luthier
Starmer should be locked up for the way he’s covered up for sexual predators, crashed the economy, massively hiked interest rates on mortgages, left hospitals permanently on strike action, delayed trains through strikes, stifled house building, racked up more debt than this country has ever known, starved the NHS of funds with huge waiting lists, raised taxes to the highest levels since World War Two, created the small boats difficulties through leaving the Dublin Agreement.
Oh ! Maybe, just maybe I’ve got the wrong guy. Carry on.

Guilty of all of those actions, but the worse, and by a a furlong, is the dismantling of free speech. He wants to create a police state where its a crime to protest against ANY government policy. Shades of 1930's Germany. It starts small but the oppressions grows. The British public need to wake up, and fast, to what his government are doing to democracy.

Mmm. Title of topic is
Happy Things/Thoughts/Videos/Jokes
Not sure how your comments align with any of these items, just saying....
The Tall Luthier
The proscription of P.Action is disagreeable. It’s hard to understand why there actions are much different to the ladies of Greenham Common in the 80s.
Given that they were proscribed it was then a clear and very easy choice for those campaigning against genocide.
A) write “we support Palestine” and get absolutely NO press coverage for their efforts
B) write “we support Palestine Action” get arrested and get press column inches.
They chose the latter for solidly good reasons.
As for free speech, it seems that racists, Xenophobes, Islamophobes and anti semites have absolutely no problem getting their bigoted views heard. I seldom hear anything else.
Sorry for the hijack guys. Will find something funny to post now.

Spy shot of the new T8 California.
VW have obviously listened and resolved many of the issues with the T7
Single large door on the nearside.
Double bed - not a narrow bed to suit a couple of friendly Hobbits.
The leaking pop top problem is solved.
The entire vehicle is made of environmentally friendly materials
Super range – it will go as far as you imagination will take you.
A no burner hob – saving gas/electricity and room. Just go to a café or restaurant.
Get back to nature with the new climate control.
The electronic and display problems have been removed – literally.
Price TBA but expected to be way cheaper than the overpriced T7
