Just had an “inside & outside” done in preparation for tomorrow’s @Official_DGD and the top chaps at Eric Hand Car Wash in Ipswich have donated their fee to the cause. Chapeau gents. #distinguishedgentlemansdrive2025 #burystedmunds #suffolk

Needs to be said. I’m stunned that @UKLabour have done what they’ve done to UK farmers. Does food security and a low carbon future not mean anything? You utterly out of touch Westminster lice…

If you’ve ever watched a @harrym_vids you’ll know this bit of road. Not sure it’s ever been committed to film this slowly though… 😜 (Please excuse the creaking leather upholstery in the background!)

Small wins. 😉 Fitted a genuine UK style front end to my Avanzato the other day (which is given up hope of ever finding!) - my “rolling restoration” of the original UK press car continues…

It’s not the end of the world if your A level results aren’t what you’d hoped for. I got a C and 2 Us and here I am today with my own brewery.

Many thanks to @Carpervert & @sniffpetrol for a great #otlot #smithandsniff at #hethel I was shocked to see “some of my past” being worn by you both! 😆 Great to catch up with @nick_khan147 & @timoldland - here’s to the next one

Amazing podcast / real life interface again. Listening to @Carpervert & @sniffpetrol talking about “teign cars”… Not only is Woodbridge mentioned (my home town) but a Daihatsu Mira (Cuore) Avanzato TR-XX R4 - so here’s my car parked in Woodbridge!

What an incredible night! All thanks to @NottmPoetryFest I had the immeasurable pleasure of sharing a stage with @MichaelRosenYes. I got to do a few poems in support and then a masterclass in how to do a #poetry show for all ages from the wings. I’m a very happy #poet tonight 😁

Great drive to “the coast” last night. An utter tonic after a very busy day. I’m still totally smitten by this thing. #tvr #cerbera #v8

Interesting initiative by ⁦@EastSuffolk⁩ council “40 areas across East Suffolk are now being managed as 'wild spaces' where grass will be left to grow longer and wildflowers will be planted to help wildlife to thrive” #bees
