On the rare occasion I turn the radio on I prefer all the music they put on those "Driving" albums. Other times I am listening out for next weeks little job !! _________________ 1964 International Harvester |

A friend of mine here in France still has his RHD car and one of the reasons he doesnt want to change it for a LHD car is because he is partially deaf in his left ear and cant hear his wife  _________________ www.OldFrenchCars.com

I must tell my (French) sister I have discovered why her husband wants to keep his old U.K. RHD car............  _________________ 1964 International Harvester |

These give me a buzz while driving:
Hotel California. (Eagles)
Sultans of Swing. (Dire Straights)
Tunnel of love . (Dire Straights)
Atomic. (Blondie)
While driving in France: The music from 'Bilitis' (so atmospheric.)
And almost anything by Prokofiev. |

Can't hear a damn thing in the Matta, so much tyre, engine and transmission noise....even conversation, sorry shouting, is hard work!
CD player in the Q4 is playing silly beggars so nothing in there either
Daily car is usually rock of some description, currently a band I've recently discovered called "Kill Hannah"

The Shadows are best at that tune. Mind you I think that they were great all round (except singing where they were murder) Wonder if they will be doing a 50th anniversary concert this year...hope so _________________ The Clan Chieftain |
