Ahhhh excellent!

I thought it may have been posted by someone from the mainland as the choice of music is by a Dutch Prog Rock group,

Hocus Pocus by Focus if I'm not mistaken

And still making music and still touring.

My favourites are House of the King or Sylvia, top stuff.

I remember House of the King being the theme tune to a science program called Don't ask me, back in about '73. It had a very young Dr. Miriam Stoppard presenting it. She gave me, an 11 year old boy, some very pleasant memories.

I enjoyed watching / listening to that

Really? You were obviously quite mature for an 11 year old

On a serious note; does anyone know what UTube means by "moneytise" the videos? Would this be a way of generating a little bit of money for Longer's charity?

...however, i'm not sure that hey do yodel in the Vosge Mountains...until now

I have been promised a release of the write-up soon, so it could be good timing...Can I also add mine (IF anyone hasn't seen it already)

..i think you may not be able to monitorise unless you are paying your fair share of royalties to Mr Pocus and the boys...

Happy memories, although "racing driver" I am not!

Wasn't too sure initially what was and wasn't allowed, a few faster cars came past on the out lap but once that TR4 came past that was it, pedal to the metal (well fibreglass)

Great shots (by the rather confused looking camera operator!!)

That was a fantastic piece of road and brings back some great memories on a wet and windy January night!

Cheers Joe.

We'll do it all again in September

Good stuff Joe! Gotta love the Vosges

I didn't recognise the soundtrack at all (I'm too young ) until the lyrics vocals kicked in. Can hardly call them "lyrics"...

Han, since our Easter visit to stay with you I still find myself listening to this. I cannot understand a word of the adverts or news bulletins but the music is good!
