Sussex Radio Control Car Club
I went to see a morning’s racing at the dedicated circuit of the Sussex Radio Control Club. The people I met were all friendly, talkative and very helpful. The courtesy shown to a old, fat stranger was very warm. Thanks.
Headcorn – The boats
The static display was awe inspiring. Some of the models must have taken years. Well done to all those who braved visitors with heavy hands. The lake was a pleasant place to sit while eating one’s lunch. Watching the boats
Headcorn – The Cars

Goodwood Festival of Speed 2018
There’s something rather special about the Goodwood Festival of Speed. People are ready to talk to you, like the father and daughter on the Land Rover stand. The young woman’s enthusiasm for the BRM was contagious. People apologised if they
