Almost the same, is it not! It was one the Mike Costigan sent me some time ago saying, "The day the lockdown ends" - suitably modified, of course...

Quite likely - though I don't know its origin. Does anybody have a clue?

It came from the ATF website that Duncan Grimmond points us to from time to time; I think Tony has turned the image round as well as adding the Seven!

Turned round? There must have been some effort in righting the Restaurant signboard?

Clearly the Seven driver had fully mastered the clutch.
Some are still wearing face masks. Or was it to keep out the blue oil smoke?
