Another interlude - skirting the Teign estuary in South Devon back in June 2007, up front is diesel-hydraulic loco D1015 'Western Champion', taking us to Penzance for beer and chips...!

The beer keg is a new addition!

The beer keg is a new addition!

Too far up for us to remove. Some philistines! Unlike the cone on the Glaswegian Iron Duke, the keg adds nothing to those men of the Age of the Enlightenment.

Back in the mid 80's working with my father most likely on a Jaguar XJ6 or a BMW 6 pot in my old Saudia overalls of which I still have a pair which I'm going to hang on the wall in my workshop here.

I thought the grid walk and autographs was going to be really cheesy after all most of us are amateurs. But they handed out posters with everyone’s car on it and all the kids went round collecting all the drivers signatures and loved it. If you want to get kids interested in cars and racing it’s a brilliant idea.

Take note Formula E, you don’t need silly graphics and weird noises, you just need some poster, pens and proper access to the cars.

Random kid attempting to get in a NASCAR.

A large chunk of America has no idea about life outside their own state, let alone their country. Only 40% of the country have passports (although they weren't needed to travel to Canada and Mexico up until 2007)

About 86% or UK citizens hold one
