Re: Introductions

... I went to recuperate at my parents home, which at that time was in Yorkshire. Mending took a long while (if I ever really have) so I got used to being up here & have never really left the area since. As I’ve built myself a house here now I guess I should feel settled. I’ve never married (no ...

... circuit in 2003 as a celebration of the Daytona 600 win on the Island, I enjoy track days although I've been off track since May last year due to being medically unfit post op, I would say my pace on the road is calm/quick and on track usually in the fast group on familiar circuits.

There aren't many of the old school left. I know people don't like him and think he's a bit wet, but I've got time for Michael Hague. I also like Clarke and IDS. I'm very old school when it comes to my MPs.
