As every radio programme on the BBC gets away with churning over past features and stories at this time of year, why shouldn't we?
What have been your stand-out motoring memories for 2015, and do you have any set goals for 2016?
Highlight for me was undoubtably seeing the jolly green giant return to Gwood after 60 years away. As for 2016, I've not decided on any firm plans as yet.

Took the old car on a trip to visit a friend in Arisaig which also gave me the oportunity to retake a photograph that I took 55 years previously of my parents and big sister launching our boat on Loch Morar.
I still have the big sister and the Seagull outboard.

My wife is very ill and a holiday in France in the Healey would not have been a good idea, so when my neighbour Shirl said she wanted to sell her Boxster and buy an Evoque (she's from Cheshire) I bought it for the trade in price and we used it instead and had a lovely time. It's a cracking little car and we visited a Bentley owning chum as well as her sister. If you want to enjoy drivIngl go to France and stay off the Autoroutes.
As soon as he dropped to a legal speed I got this photo.

She's a lovely person and a perfect neighbour Ric, but I'm glad her hubby is paying the shopping bills.  |
