He did one book, Jim Clark: At The Wheel, in 1964.

Other than that, Graham Gauld and Eric Dymock have both written very good books about Jim.

Thanks.
It's the Dymock book I've spotted for sale,a writer I'd heard of before.

Is it starting to drift yet?

Talking of which, I think I'll drift off upstairs to bed.
This modern jazz on BBC 4 isn't really doing it for me. I don't really 'get' some of it. I just find it at times discordant.

I prefer a nice melody.

[Bobberoo99]

No drifting old chap, not even sleet, or snow, or even a Japanese car going sideways!!!

Why am I so annoyed by the advert for that Ring doorbell/video/alarm/thingy???

I'm "holding the fort" at TT.

I went out ,in the rain as my feet were cold and needed exercise to free them up ,so I relieved 2 lamp posts

of out of date temporary cardboard road works signs ,to be used for some of my "art".

Interesting football trivia.....

1/5 of the clubs in Italy's top division ,Serie A are managed by failed ex Chelsea managers.

Maurizzio Sarri at Juventus
Antonio Conte at Internazionale of Milan
Claudio Ranieri at Sampdoria of Genova
Carlo Ancelotti at Napoli ,Naples....

4 out of 20 teams.

I follow the games on Freesports channel 64 Freeview.

Sassuolo are punching way above their weight in the top division.

I wanted to go to a match whilst there but couldn't work out the ticket arrangements.

Still awake.
Been watching the NASCAR truck race from Miami where fatboy is I read.
Delayed 90 minutes while they dried the track.
They DO NOT race on ovals in wet,170 mph insanity.
It's just finished.

Morning Peri

You are verily a martyr to your art.
And a good night watchman.
Now go and get some kip.

I have just been for a walk, but only to the bathroom and back. I didn't relieve any lamp posts or road signs.

That Claudio Ranieri has got a nerve, stealing my identity.
Some say I look like him.
I say "I had this face before he came along, so therefore he looks like me"
Bloody cheek.

Morning all.

I dunno, Pushfit's V6 is an Essex, my V6s are both Colognes.

There’s a couple of Go Devils here too, if that helps.

Shop assistants round here often say ‘see you later’ to which I always reply ‘yes, public bar of the Ferret & Trouser at 8pm’ and walk away.

Morning chaps
Another busy Saturday awaits us, shopping for MIL, I wonder how many idiots in shorts I'll see today, a quick alteration to the drawer I fitted for her last week, lunch, a visit to Mrs Bobbers nan who's unfortunately in hospital at the moment, shopping for us, more imbecile dodging for me then, and finally home at some point!!!

I certainly do do hugs, magoo, especially when Jamie has just scored.
Bobbers will agree, you can't beat a lovely warm hug!

I don't do a do diy postal service, but you can have a virtual one sent to you via t'internet.
Just go to E-Hugs4U, and scroll down until you get to glenrobbo'sinterhugs, click on that, then select the grade you require from the menu below:

1. Warm Avuncular
2. Firm and brotherly
3. Very firm and masterful ( the most popular choice )
4. Disconcertingly powerful but not threatening in any way
5. The OMG! What's that pressing into my thigh? hug
6. Bare Hug ( similar to the Bobber's Bare Hug, but with slightly less hair and no tongue action )
7. Bone crushingly overpowering and dominant.
8. The glenrobbo Special ( involves foreplay, arm length rubber gauntlets, a Day-Glo orange Balaclava, a velvet cape, a large sink plunger and a cloth soaked in chloroform. You may wake up naked under a hedge covered in dew and cobwebs and feeling a bit tender in certain parts, but with a pervasive warm glow of well-being.)

Mrs P and friend are going ‘imbecile dodging’ (). I’ve been tasked with not going with them.
So
Jeep handbrake replacing today and acquisition of 3.6m of 4 by twice. Steelwork is being delivered on Monday for the next phase of anti-theft anti- revetment entailing a rugby post arrangement with an opening within which there’ll be a big fk-off door. Need the timber for a template for the hold down bolts to cast them in.

This fiddling with your MIL's drawers seems to be becoming a regular weekend pastime of yours, Bobbers.

And if that wasn't enough, you are now proposing to go shopping for another MIL???

As for shopping on a Saturday, surely that is for masochists and/or idiots only?


I find the best time to do shopping is around 8:30 pm on a Tuesday evening.
I can be in and out in a Flash! Ah-aah!

That sounds like quite an impressive handbrake, Pushfit.

Good luck with the not shopping assignment.
