Pulled by the boys in blue

Just a quick blog to pass on a heart stopping moment that happened to me today. I was taking my M3 to Eclectic Cars for an MOT and oil change this morning (sorry Barney but it really is too far to travel to Classic Heroes just for an oil change!) and as I approached the Tingewick bypass I spotted a Police car behind me, now I wouldn't have been "going for it" anyway as it was damp, the car was clean and I know that there are regularly speed cameras up on this bypass so I stuck to 70....


I got to the end of the bypass and the Police car was right behind me with the blue lights flashing! I quickly pulled over whilst wondering what on earth I might have done, the officer got out and approached me with a stern look on his face only to offer his hand to shake mine after which he congratulated me on the work I do for the club magazine, he said "keep up the good work", I was very relieved, and I will do just that!

Cars and Girls

This may prove to be controversial, but since nobody reads my blog I don't see that it's likely to upset many people! 

I like cars, I like pretty women (picking my words carefully here), regarding the latter I am talking about pretty women generally, I have been known to take a second glance whilst out in town and a pretty woman walks by, I do not think this is wrong, in fact, I believe it is actually a subconscious thing in that men are programmed by evolution to think about mating opportunities.Woahh! I know what you are thinking but it's not true, just by looking at a pretty woman you do not have to thinking about, well, sex!

I love cars, as you now know I like looking at pretty women and I am also an amateur photographer, hang on, there you go again, you're now thinking that I take photos of cars and pretty women....well yes, yes I do when I get the chance.

The only reason I am writing this is because I was recently at the NEC at the Classic Car Show and as it was getting a little slow late on Sunday afternoon I went and asked some of the models that were on a stand nearby if they would mind coming over to our stand and "brightening things up", I had in mind exactly what you will see on the clubs flickr pages, nothing rude or crude in my opinion, just pretty models posing with our BMW's.....however, someone in the club has asked if the club is going downhill as a result of me posting the pictures, I'd just like to get some feedback from other people to so see what you all (?) think...

Here's a Wiki entry on attractiveness that might prove interesting, the photos can be found on flickr here
