Love the French spirit of making the most out of their small cars. Some were harder to spot than others! My favourite, the beautifully kept Renault 11. Vel Satis yours for 1,900€ #French #Frenchcars #classiccars #everydaycar #Peugeot #Citroen

Air looking and sounding as fresh as when I bought my copy of Moon Safari from Andy's Record over 25 years ago. Royal Albert Hall looked radiant too. @airofficial #Air #AirBand #MoonSafari #FrenchBand #electronicmusic #rockmusic #livemusic @RoyalAlbertHall #London

A very pleasant way to spend a day in the Gloucestershire countryside. Topped off by the sight and sound of the magnificent BRM V16 continuation. Thank you for your hospitality @brm_racing. #BRM #V16 #Prescott @BugattiOwners #classic #motorsport #racingcar #hillclimb

Lovely morning sunshine at @PrescottHClimb in the company of @brm_racing with the @BMMuseum Rover-BRM gas turbine alongside some other rather super machines. #PrescottHistorique #BRM #RoverBRM #motorsport #hilclimb

Privileged to represent @bmmuseum and enjoy a convivial afternoon at the Buckingham Palace garden party celebrating the Creative Industries, hosted by Their Majesties the King and Queen. Blue skies and such cultured company. #BuckinghamPalace @DCMS @ace_national #culture #museum

Delighted to be amongst the many hundreds who thronged into Westminster Abbey to celebrate the life of Sir Stirling Moss. Determined yet modest, his name not only lives on in the world of #motorsport but will forever be interwoven in the British language. #StirlingMoss

The Learning Hub is OPEN! 🥳 This brand-new Lifelong Learning and Education Space has been made possible with the generous support of The Patrick Foundation.
They cut the ribbon and The Learning Hub soon turned into a hive of activity with a visit from Mickleton Primary School!
