That's a bum question, and cheeky with it!

I was so incandesant with rage I could not focus properly, my hands were shaking so much!
I was seeing red ............ well pink at any rate.

perhaps I'll take up fashion shoots.

I do indeed have a well fitting pair of trews in this becoming tint (something to do with getting in touch with ones feminine side according to my daughters), but mine are flares (i forgot to pack them for Assen, but they would not have compared to the rich attire sported by the Goddards,Greens, Thompson, and Bob Marley Sebba amongst others)
So without the full frame i am not convince it is me. Moreover im more than a little concerned with tonys eysight...
On second inspection , or was it third, if that is not a mulberry handbag then it is definitely not me..
but let me look again....

Peter, I am sorry that I failed to recognise you at Silverstone, probably because you were too far away ......................

Would that be the Assen of the World, John?

Jack, it was a pleasure, but your gardening explanation is quite beyond me. :(

Probably most of our readers know that the Dutch pronounce Assen in a different way to us English speakers. #-o

Bob

I think you may have sown the seed for a photographic competition here?

Any suggestions as to rules, and what do you suggest by way of prizes?

Robin, you are moving this amusing photo into a whole new, brave world!

I do not know how many Morgan drivers own (let alone know how to use) a camera, although some must because we see their efforts in the annual calendar, so there may be mileage in your suggestion.

Whether the competiton should be for amusing shots or 'unintended consequences', so to speak, is open for discussion. Perhaps some of our readers may care to express an opinion?

Let's form a committee, have a series of meetings, produce a discussion document, canvas the views of the general public, publish the results on the web, and then have a vote to decide the agreed course of action. Then draw up a plan to implement the rules, ensure that they meet all Health and Safety regulations, run it past the European Court of Human Rights, and the Equality Commission, Race Relations Committee, and the Aero Challenge Technical Committee. Following approval from all of these bodies we should set a date to launch the competition with an appropriate fanfare at some prestigious venue in front of the International Media with some well known Celebrity to announce the start. Other matters that will require some consideration will be the appointment of a panel of judges (perhaps we can get Levenson as he is free now I believe), and the level and value of prizes on offer to the winners of the several categories I anticipate we will need to ensure fairness for all entrants.

Simple really - I will leave you get the ball rolling.

Bob.
