Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[Dingdell]

Positively the most embarrassing pic ever taken, but hey, warts & all is ok. Mid 1980's I think.

Did you drive a Cortina in those days? In this pic you have the air of a man who leaves work and drives his cortina home. Don't know why, you just do. 

I'm going with a Capri or a Chevette.

Yup - a Capri. White. Of course.

I had a Cortina, too - a 2.8 Ghia with all the trimmings. Beautiful bit of kit, but I went through 4 engines. And two driving licences.

A Capri!! I can't tell you how many bloody Capri rallies I went to in the 80's. Fields full of proud Capri owners, hot Saturday and Sunday afternoons looking at Capri's, driving in covoys of Capri's to the fields, driving in convoys of Capri's home again, ah good thing my youth was spent so wisely. 

Those were the carefree days. Where did they go?? 

Capris were THE thing Trace, as you know.

I had three. A standard 1.6 L, white, a 2 litre GL, black, & an absolute beaut, a 2.3 Ghia, white, with that sexy hump on the bonnet.
Some years earlier - this will be lost on most - I had an MGB GT. Now that was some machine, in the day.

PS - Hope you are feeling better.

Oh yes - you were definitely a Capri owner..........

It's not easy to make it transparent enough for Cos to work out, but hard enough that you lot miss the clues.

What standard snooker player were you?

Still play? Still watch?

You saw the news this week about the governing body getting chucked out and replaced by...Barry Hearn and team?

I predict a brighter future for snooker again from here with Mr Hearn in the drving seat again

Nah, I was a Merc-man by then. A Capri parked in the Captain's spot? - I should cocoa. Golf Club Captain's don't drive Capris, ffs.
