I am hanging my head in shame. Guilty of the crime of driving with the hood up. Please forgive me!

Out all day yesterday with hood down - good blast along A120 and A12 to Ipswich and beyond.

Later, whilst at Levington marina looking wistfully at the boats, my passenger insisted we put the hood up for the run back home. I did object, and it did take some persuading!

So how are all you muckers?

When will Wedgdom take over the world? Or should that be Wedgedoom? Shall we set up the Wedge Party to fight the next election? Main policy thrust - abolition of speed limits, more noise but only from Wedges, topless motoring compulsory?

Roads pay us Wedgers to use them (i.e. reverse road charges), special Sunday runs through tunnels only for Wedge owners?

Volunteer your sugestions for the manifesto!

How about Ken introducing a "Combustion Charge"
where you get free parking time
which is extended the more V Max your car combusts per minute

2.0 litres = 2 hours
2.8 litres = 3 hours
3.5 litres = 3.5 hours
4.0 litres = 4 hours
& so on

Well, Beacon, at least the girls agreed! And half the year may be a sufficiency.

I must admit to top-up driving too. But I have only just shaken off a rancid cold and bronchitis so I didn't want to make it worse (despite being a Kafka fan.)

Cold just about gone so it's top-down all the way to New Year!

Don't quite get the Franz Kafka connection Adam. Colds and such. The Castle? The Trial? Metamorphosis?
