Would that be linked to “Our Thing” - that’s a Sicilian mindset isn’t it?

Haha. No connections to the Honoured Society.
Just Targa love over here.

Although that said, I may have unwittingly attended an event in Enna hosted by an “interesting” clan…

I remember staying at an Italian campsite with my parents when I was probably about 10 (so probably 1973). We got friendly with the family in the next caravan who were Italian. My dad asked about the mafia and the guy explained “there is no mafia- it’s just people helping each other out”. Hmmmm

Two every different cars at Weedon Bec today. The V8 is stunning but I think I prefer the 850cc!

Ps my parents had a Renault 4 in the 70s. I honestly found it a bit strange. I'm not sure how it managed to climb the hills to get us around Buxton!ImageImage

I stood around for ages in the survivor 'display'. Not one person took any notice. Wasted my time obviously.

Looks like a fat fish - a look which has been revisited recently with frankly ghastly results

Followed one of those 'things' on Monday just after my first cataract operation, no I wasn't driving, it looked horrible. Good job I could'nt wear my specs!! It looks like something out of the fifties!!
